You also don't have to make threads. But if you do, don't expect everyone that replies to agree with you. If you can't handle people telling you they think you are wrong, then you have no business making threads on a forum like this. Don't make threads that are semi-trolling, just to close them in the middle of the debate after making one last post yourself.

And I use "you" as in "every forum member".
