Opinions are just that, opinions

[Erik_Twice]

Thats true. Like, I don't like RTS games. However, I would not try to argue that its a poor genre, its just not my thing.

The world would be a better place if people were more keen on saying that! I, for one, don't like Beat'em ups or Zelda, or Metroid, imagine how sad would it be for me to claim they are bad!

That's a nice opinion you have there. However in my opinion, all opinions are created equal.

Thankfully my opinion doesn't require me to accept yours, but your opinion requires you to accept mine.

It is my opinion that J T's opinion will be that that opinion is not as equal as other opinions.

Thankfully my opinion doesn't require me to accept yours, but your opinion requires you to accept mine.

How so? My opinion is the opposite of yours, which would surely mean that I'm having to discount your opinion in the same way that you're having to discount mine.

Just remember it's the internet and that it doesn't matter.

Tell the person drawing you into an argument that you aren't going to bother with them.

Add them to your 'foe' list (it blocks their posts).

Resume life.
