Most of the time it has to do with a thread degenerating into a posturing battle between DCers trying to one-up each other with their egos. What starts out as a valid discussion on the merits of certain tactical philosophies or equipment usage and their methods of deployment begins to deteriorate rapidly as one poster decides to post something he or she envisions as more knowledgeable than the previous poster. As other less knowledgeable posters massage the posters' ego with "+1s" and smiley faces, someone else will inevitably be compelled to interject their vast knowledge into the discussion, and then the professors will hold court until the problem has been beat to death or endlessly discussed to the point of diminishing returns..........
Does that kind of explain it??
