ok i just said this in another thread.
this forum could be an extremely powerful source of information if people stopped including their feelings in with their 'facts'.
if you are going to state something as fact, as a simple matter of ettiqute you should
QUOTE YOUR SOURCE.
this 'personal opinions are facts' stuff is BS and is just junking up this forum.
comon cheech, if everyone had to read over their own posts and then dig for info they've picked up from all over the joint just to quote their sources, nobody would want to bother posting in the first place. its only a message board not some school report...
people treat this as a school report.Quote:

quote your source. or be doubted!!
it's a discussion board. who cares if you're doubted. i'll never claim my opinion is a fact. i'll claim it's my opinion. and often times personal experience is the best source of fact.
i'll also occasionally site facts that i won't site the source of, for purposes of protecting friends/confidants, if i think the fact is relevant or worth sharing. however i don't embellish or make shit up, so i guess you can go ahead and doubt my veracity all you like.
maybe the "my" in that sentence should be a collective "my".
but mostly i don't say anything here that important, so.. pffft. :hmm:
if i need to defend the value of not mixing your experiences with facts than i am not even going to continue.
not quite right. you need to define what you mean by facts in the first place. where do facts come from? what are they? what is the difference between fact and fiction?
thank you, thats all i was saying.Quote:

I still want to know where facts come from tho... is it a big computer in a secret underground fact lab in Antarctica?
i can see why people would want to keep their sources of info a secret though.
Rumours can quickly spread, especially on the internet.
We have to show each other trust and respect on here.
