when arguing on a forum

[smcop]

Yea..I have had an opinion, and it has been shown to me to be wrong, or someone's argument made more sense.

 

[missperky]

Nope.

 

[Jeff]

have you ever changed your own opinion of the subject based on what others have said or pointed out?

Yes

That plane flies

Thanks to MMdad

 

[Pete]

You changed my mind on a forum, even though we weren't arguing.

I can be cool that way.

 

[meangirl]

I can be cool that way.

I know.

You haven't swayed me to your way of thinking for a number of things... but you were right about Sleuth...

Some people are hopeless :shrug:

 

[Sonsie]

Sure, as long as they point out facts that I didn't know or consequences I hadn't realized. It's hard to budge me on most issues though.

 

[Beelzebaby666]

NO, all the time

OMG I've lost count of the number of times I've changed my position because of either new information or someone set me straight.

I also don't reject someone out of hand just because they're a traditional idiot. Even a stopped watch is right twice a day.

Plus I'm half an Alzheimer's patient so I forget who I hate on a daily basis.

I have more often changed my point of view or opinion of a forum member than of a topic of discussion. But I will say that I am usually enlightened from a heated topic argument/debate, regardless of my feelings (if any) on the matter.

 

[Kain99]

Don't tell my your forgot... I believe our fever arguement was my only ever flame war.

OMG OMG OMG! I totally remember now! Man... those were the days huh?

Of course

 

[Larry Gude]

This is the...

...essence of the forums, to me; an awesome lab for exchanging viewpoints, ideas and good old fashioned arguing. Even on the rare incidences where my mind is not changed for me, I still enjoy understanding more clearly other peoples viewpoints and how they got to them.

 

[baileydog]

Ask anyone who knows me and they will thell you I know everything and Im never wrong. So there. And I will dismember anyone who disagrees.

 

[Nanny Pam]

Yes, After considering the information and checking their facts

 

[dems4me]

So who were the other three that voted what I voted?
