It may come as a surprise to some on Punaweb, but not all members see the need to respond to every post they disagree with, or to repeat their opinions ad nauseum. The longer I've been here, the more I've come to realize that Punaweb is rarely a place for intelligent conversation or respectful dialog. Rather it's become a place where drive-by character assassination and obnoxious behavior have become the norm. So rather than engage or encourage those who have nothing better to do than engage in cyber bullying, I suspect many members just monitor the threads for the occasional bit of new information, contribute when they feel it's appropriate, then back away from their keyboards before the spit stars flying. Just because they have silenced themselves, it doesn't mean their opinions have changed.
