| That's it. I think I'm giving up on p.ie. I try to have an intelligent discussion about how the problems with Islam, may have more to do with the demographics of it's members, as illustrated by comparisons with other communities with similar demographics, and I'm called stupid. Not by a troll, but by a poster who i'd normally consider intelligent, though with whom I disagree a lot. If one cannot have an intelligent debate on that site with a supposedly intelligent individual, then how can one have one with the rest of the trolls. So I think I'm giving up. It takes up way too much of my time anyway. It's machinenation for me from now on, the ambience is so much better. If you every see me there again, I'll be expecting a strong rebuke. You can be my support circle to stop me from relapsing :-) |

go cinnte, cinnte, is cinnte .. ? You're too good for that place now. I don't want to start another thread ranting about p.ie in particular but could there be a critical mass of bodies on a site before you get a herd instinct kicking in? Maybe big is not better but loads of small cells like they have in the SAS .. |

Welcome Riadach: you could check out the Ice bar and make it a cool shebeen for the lads if you like (what is Irish for Ice Bar? I will change the thread title). |

Don't. It may prove useful in years to come. |

| Lads while posting inviting other Irish speakers to join, I noticed that if you use the word machinenation together in a post, it blocks it out. |

They can google us as Machine Nation? (main not Irish google) If Nation was blocked out, it would stifle a lot of ongoing debate... |

Otherwise P.ie goes Italian and suffers a dbt crisis and has to devalue all posts in order to resuscitate aggregate demand. Meanwhile, go-getting, libertarian Machine Nation does a Singapore and booms along grandly. |
