Yep, it's for a good cause.
 Plus I hope that no one here really wants to offend anyone anyway, even if by accident.

No one WANTS to offend people. But everyone is offended by different things and some are quicker to be offended.
So instead we should all just hug and dance!

That's like my perfect dream, we all hug and dance around a fire pit somewhere in the forest, and sing songs and play music.

That dream can be attainable, it just takes time and effort on everyone's part.

Wow I have no idea what's been going on while I was away dealing with some personal stuff...
I just want to say I know I'm late to the party here... Not only with what's going on, I mean to ToS period. I didn't join until this year, but I truly do feel like I know some of you and I would like to know more of you better. I think this is a lovely place to all come together, and so I hope whatever has happened here can be fixed for all parties involved. Group hug? lol

But yeah, things seem to be going smoothly once again for the most part. This truly is a great place.

I'm not even sure. I've been trying, since that whole incident, but sometimes things just don't feel right now, like it's changed people's perceptions of this.

 I don't think I really understood this at first, but now I'm starting to get it. Debates never put me off before, but now that I've had a chance to see the way they repeat and spiral down, I'm kind of sad that we can't all be a little less heavy about everything.

Debates are fine as long as we remember to not take them too seriously, but at times people can get carried away by emotions and whatnot, so it's not always that easy. Still, always remember that it takes at least two to argue, so if you find something frustrating, then don't partake in it. Personally I'm far too stubborn to follow such guidelines, but I try to acknowledge my faults and not rile people up too much.

It's because all too often people put their egos on the line in debates.

That's the problem.
Nobody can actually talk about such things because all they are actually doing is stating why they believe they are right and therefore so great, as an ego thing. That of course can't go unchallenged by others, so they respond. Nobody discusses anything, they just fight. Keeping this forum going with 'debates' on it is like treating a lung cancer sufferer who insists on still smoking 10 packs per day.
