Re: TOTV Membership & participation
Once again the old 80-20 is kicking in.
The news we watch every day consistently dwells on the negative.
TV residents if given a chance to redo their decision to come here....I venture to say 90+% would do so, but as is the usual, the not so popular aspects get the attention. And the very, VERY small % that just plain don't like it here, will not like it any where.
Another aspect of posting is that many are aggressive in their approach as they feel safe to do so in a sort of protected environment...like having to deal with the key board VS looking in the eyes of the opposition. Most will be very different in person....for the most part that is human nature....then there are those like me....what you see and hear is what you get...good, bad, right or wrong.
I much prefer to deal with those who stand up for what they believe...then an appreciation is had for a given position. The propensity to be right or agreed with is also natural. How ever over time, when one communicates, regularly, it becomes very easy...actually second nature....to let pass or even ignore that which doesn't deserve too much thought.....
TV is a great place to live....the majority backs it up.
TOTV is a great forum.....the minority (participants) in this case back it up.....the majority would to if they were so inclined.
I personally don't spend too much time on minority (not race!!!) reports. Although I did learn a long time ago to not dismiss one who disagrees as there are times when they are the only one right in the room!!!!
Doncha just love the active post subjects?!?!?!
