What, you don't like having everything you post being exaggerated into insane territory to make it easier for someone else to make their point?Who said anything about taking it as gospel? I am taking it for what it is.
I don't think most people here would know how to have a discussion if that's the case. I mean, half these people here think I'm against the rumors-posters just because I proposed creating a forum for them so those that don't want to see them will quit bitching about it.
People who don't mind reading rumors now "worship" them. People who'd prefer rumors being clearly noted are "vilifying" them. This is just a childish thread full of logical fallacies and shit attitudes. I thought it'd be cool to rally some people together to actually make some progress in this city, but screw that noise. It's not what's wanted.
At least in Indy I could get together with the urban dev community for a beer after speaking up at city hall against a downtown drive-thru project. I thought I was moving up to a better and more active urban community. Hah. This isn't a community, this is a mess of news posts with comments.
It's cool. I'm not like you folks. If this is what you prefer, have at it.
