The fine folks of JU would get all sorts of ugly on most of the Off-Topic threads
Not on this one they will not. Those who cut loose on the ego on this site are usually advised to go to JoeUser if they want to chase the ego
because we do not puss around
Thats the reason why it can be hard at times to converse with "the big boys" there. They have more sense than to get stuck into an ego fray. Dr Guy for example, a good man who converses articulately, and with passion on what he believes in, and will readily listen when its not his area of expertise - the latter is a rare commodity in these days of the unaccountable anonymous Internet User & Blogger.
You all should come play with the big kids on JoeUser
Have done so for a long time, as many here have done so. You cant compare the two Sites though - its like comparing chalk and cheese. Both exist for different reasons, and the culture of both is different. Here you have to stand up and be counted if you give advise, and defacto held accountable for the quality of that advise. Its a practical site, by in large, where in the main your remarks can be tested and validated almost immediately. JoeUser tends to be more, esoteric shall we say, opening the door to some "interesting" motives behind some personal posts.
All good fun at the end of the day. The problem comes when some treat them like a substitute for real life and personal relationships - that leads down a rather dubious road.
