quote: Originally posted by orange I think one of the reason's I voted Big Crunch, and possibly this applies to others as well, is he doesn't get involved in the petty flaming. I know I'm guilty of it myself, now and again, but looking back It's much easier to listen to someone and perhaps even see their point when they aren't tearing you down. He presents his views with a very "well, stop and think about this point" approach, which I think helps people actually stop and think about what he's saying

Com'on, flame wars are fun.

Imran and Shi Huangdi because they are both highly intelligent and articulate spokespersons for the opposite end of the policital spectrum from me.

Lancer and SlowwHand because they're the best at having their fingers on the pulse of America.

MtG because he just plain knows lots of stuff.

David Floyd and che because they always have really interesting stuff to say.

Depends on the subject.

MtG for legal knowledge or insight on current affairs. But not on the Civil War.

Asher for computer knowledge. But not for views on Canadian politics.

Che for social and political activism, but not for financial advice. (Sorry, couldn't resist... )

Frogger just seems to be quite well-informed about things in general, and usually is quite rational in his arguments.

But I'd say the person who has changed my opinions the most about things is Loinburger. He is simply the most logically consistent arguer I have seen here.

Oh, and for music...well, hehehe, gotta go with myself on that one.

I miss GePap in the list. He never spams, his posts are almost every time very informative and his arguments well backed.

PS: Ming leads in the list? I'd honestly understand every act of open syphocancy, but where's the point of doing it clandestine, unless the object of syphocancy is a God?

quote: I don't listen to any Libertarians...

That explains why our occasional debates are so one sided.

I voted other.

I listen mostly to libertarians to fine tune my own views and to discover potential contradictions, Floyd, Wraith (still doesn't post enough), Rex (the same), and I recently enjoyed Loinburger's dismantling of Imran in the natural rights thread even though Loinburger may not be a libertarian.

I try to avoid MtG which is a commentary on his thorough knowledge, and Ramo is probably the best of the anarchists ( I can't keep track of Boshko's name changes).

The liberals and socialists? No one worth mentioning, not a commentary on the liberals here, their ideology simply provides them no ammunition to fight with.

frogger.

Whenever he is posting on a thread I have to be more carefull, because he will certainly catch me saying something incorrect.

Che is another person who knows a lot of stuff, and impresses me.

I'm not on here as much as a lot of folks but have comt to respect the views of a number of posters but no one has caused me to change my views radically on anything ( probably because I don't jump to having an opinion until I have informed myself a bit in the first place)

GePap & UR continually make me look at my own position on things. They present well thought out argument on most subjects. Rarely do I agree with their conclusions and often question their facts, but I would assume they would say the same of me. Debate without counterpoint is nothing more than worthless speech making.

That was a team effort. Loinburger is best to argue along with, and tough to argue against.

Of those not on the list, I'll second your vote for loinburger. Just don't charge him interest.

I don't try to get into serious discussions, but usually it's with Boris or Che.

I've always found more fun in laughing at people.

ACK!
