Re: Thoughts/stuff
I didn't make the wording in "higher-ranked players" clear enough. I don't mean the difference between D5/6/7. I mean the difference between D1 and D2+. (I have in mind a graph somewhere that depicted the distribution of skill level.) Because the D2+ players are the ones who are, more often than not, the ones interested in the game, it self-selects for those with low attention span.
I'd say that FFR has, at least in my case, been a place to get better at arguments. For everyone, actually. TWG is one example. Another example is Critical Thinking. A lot of posts have substance, even though they're outnumbered by the one's that don't. And that's not anyone's prerogative, but it's something I've noticed within the culture that's kinda led me away from FFR.Comment

Re: Thoughts/stuff
you can be skilled at making a thoughtful, concise point that is both stupid and incorrectJust because a post has a lot of words that doesn't make it a good post. The reality is that sometimes posters are not on the right track, rambling, or people simply don't care about that topic. Long drawn out posts can also derail threads by bringing up things nobody had been talking about up until then.
Some people are even particularly skilled at making their points very concise and that can take a lot of thought and isn't "lazy" at all.
then you can defend it with more of the same in the face of opposition, which makes you stupidComment
