Atrocities, thanks for that speech.

and i would be the silly.
and that's my method for conflict resolving.
i think maybe posting some general rules and tips for arguements might help.
1: if your angry, type out what you really want to say. give vent to everything. all of it. then, erase it. do this until you can post calmly.
2: if your post includes a negative opinion of somebody, erase it. then, consider if it's truly needed. if it is, re-write it as constructive critisism. 'your feet stink' to 'perhaps you could change your socks'. you'd be amazed how much it can help.
3: if, despite everything, you think your post may make people think you don't like them, put something in there like 'i do respect you and your opinions'. Atrocities once thought i didn't like him becuase i was i little to blunt. and i definitly could have worded it better. fortunatly, we got it resolved with little difficulty.
4: remember, the other people are people to, with their own opinions. and remember, a good arguement is one where people learn something. and not that the other people are idiots. if you think that, something probably went wrong.
