<p>[QUOTE=&quot;physics-fan3.14, post: 3181182, member: 19165&quot;]Cheech, as one who is frequently involved in the bickering myself, I apologize to the forum. I like to be right, and I&#039;ll argue until you quit or concede. That&#039;s not the right way, and it won&#039;t convince anyone or win threads.</p><p><br /></p><p>Sometimes, the argument is useful - there is value in debate, and when both sides present relevant arguments backed up by facts, we can share ideas. These threads may seem contentious to some, but they are often entertaining, interesting, and informative to all. However, these threads are few compared to the petty squawking you describe.</p><p><br /></p><p>So, to all who have had to withstand my bickering - I apologize. I realize in hindsight that I have been involved in many of these sorts of threads, and I can do better. I really love to argue, and I don&#039;t often consider the consequences of those sorts of squabbles. I can think of several currently active threads where this sort of behavior has occurred - and as a long-time member of these forums, I should do a better job of preventing this behavior, or avoiding it if I can.</p><p><br /></p><p>While you may be a self-proclaimed troll, cheech, I find your honesty and forthrightness refreshing. Please call me out any time I step over the line! (but beware, if I think you&#039;re wrong, I&#039;ll argue back <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> )[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
