Answer #1

These types of questions can be deleted if an admin or advisor believes them to be flame baiting- a question which purpose is to cause controversy. If you have any exact examples I could take a look.

Answer #2

I agree…like I read somethng about music where people was sayin ‘rock has more meaning than rap/hiphop.’ ‘Rap is stupid/dumb.’ Everybody is intitled to their own opinion…There’s a way that it can be stated without offendin people…Anyway it caused some drama in all its just kooskoos!

Answer #3

My thoughts exactly, purely attention-seeking behavior. So close to little children, if they can’t get the positive attention—they go for any attention they can get, which is most of the time negative.

Answer #4

Just becuase someone ask a question on that topic does not mean they are looking for attention what so ever. Some people really are curious as to what other’s opinions and beliefs are and there is nothing wrong with talking about them as long as you can keep it civilized and non-personal. The problem is that some people take it too far and decide to attack other users for their opinions and beliefs.
