Ever since then, people have been very quick to go from discussing a subject to simply blasting dissenting opinion under the guise that their opinion is without merit. It's always been that way to a point, but it seems like people are "taking sides" more often these days.
And I definitely don't get the obsession with WPI. It's starting to be a bit ridiculous.

I blame DC, Mr. DaFace. Over the course of the last year or two, debate in DC has devolved to little more than name calling - and the more nasty the insult, the better. That style has migrated over here. Sad, really. Planeteers always dissed other posters' opinions - at least ever since I started reading the board. But the quality of insult and debate has deteriorated dramatically.
As for WPI, I completely agree. Personally, and even though I have a serious problem with them, I don't bring them up. What's the point? I would, however, mention that WPI is brought to this board in the form of spam quite often and the mods have done nothing to end this practice. We've already had that conversation, so I understand why. Still, I think that's also part of the problem.
