Unfortunately at times when we have had serious debates some people who were in a minority took offence where none was intended and chose to leave. That's a shame. I enjoy a good discussion and at times when the other point of view has been put forward clearly it has sometimes influenced my opinion to the point of changing my views.

At other times I've stuck to my guns and had karma points deducted because of that but que sera, that's life.

Sadly, I think it is the fact that some people have found it difficult to cope with the fact that others don't share their opinion which has led to the avoidance in some cases of more serious discussions for fear of other people getting the hump and going off in a huff.

I enjoy the fun stuff and the serious stuff and I like a bit of both.
