LOL, you would have us believe that the college/university and public school forums contain less bickering?


I’m sorry. Why do you keep dragging the public school forums into this?

Providing context is "dragging"?

No bickering here, am I right?

Why does it matter so much to you what others are doing? Why are you trying to excuse your behavior by saying other people are doing it.

It’s a child’s argument. Do you let your kids get away with that?

Aren’t you supposed to be better?

Either the bickering in the Private School forum is the norm for DCUM, or it's not. Who's looking to excuse anything?

But it’s not. The privates forum reaches levels others don’t.

The receipts upthread suggest otherwise.

How did you determine this? Any quantitative or qualitative analysis to back up this assertion?

The original post about bickering:

Not only toward BASIS. The massive bickering in the private school forum is phenomenal and quite amusing.

Doesn’t say a word about other fora, school-related or otherwise. It was a subsequent poster who dragged in the other fora for comparison so the private forum posters wouldn’t look so bad.

Why compare yourselves to others? Don’t you have your own high standards for your own behavior?

Do you not understand the meaning of "phenomenal"?

GDS literally had an article about it in the Washingtonian.

Happy to raise the level of discourse for the bickering masses on this forum.
