If you've ever entered a debate thread on a topic you're passionate about, you'll know what I'm talking about. Do you continue arguments outside of threads and refuse to reply to the persons posts in other threads in a way you would have, if you hadn't argued?

I try not to, but sometimes I can't help myself...

Yes. Because, as we all know, the internet is serious business.

No. I used to really hate a guy on here but about 2 years ago we became friends on this site. I'm not a grudge holder. I easily forgive people.

Nope. Whatever happens in a thread, stays in the thread. Unless I decide that it was too hurtful, in which case I begin a campaign of sarcastic guerilla warfare.

I don't come on the internet to argue so I don't really enter debates but I have avoided some people who I feel are a tad too petulant and I usually just ignore any inflammatory things they have to say and just post what I want around them.

yes but no I don't hold a grudge for argueing with me just if your arguement went into personal attcks instead of staying with the debate that was the point in the first place because then I know who not ot debate with because they don't have enough experience in debating or just empathy to see the other side even a little an get frustreated to the point of attacking me personally then I feel sorry for them and try not ot respond to them anmore becuase I feel bad for making them feel so frustrated in our debate that became an attack or aguement but other than that I don't care I don't remeber peoples names unless this well unless they entertain me with good debtes I guess then maybe...no not really.

Sounds impressive. I wasn't aware of that eyeroll emoticons were an exhaustible resource. We should have a battle and see what happens to Off Topic when they're no longer available for use and abuse!

Do I hold grudges? No, of course not. That would imply that I take things personally, which I very seldom do. If by holding a grudge you mean "do I remember things people have said in the past when I'm reading things that they are posting/saying in the present and apply some weighting when trying to determine how seriously to consider their thoughts and opinions", then yes, I most definitely do.

Yes that is what I mean.

Then yes. I think everyone does to a greater or lesser extent. If someone has a history of saying really silly things and/or making obviously bad-faith arguments or applying sloppy logic, then people tend to discount things they are saying in the present. People gain reputations and it takes a while to change a reputation once someone has it. For example, Gabu's arguments are always very sound, well-structured and intelligent. He could probably come in and post dead-drunk for about a year before people started discounting what he was saying because the things he's said in the past have been so good. Conversely, after the 100th thread started by MysteryLobster about how awful Obama was, people stopped taking her arguments seriously. That isn't a "grudge". It's just pattern recognition.
