[owdhamer]

Grammar and punctuation are not that important, its content that matters.

[Teddy_boy]

I arm quiet content with my grammur and punturation thank yew.

[ummmm]

AB has made me change my mind about so many subjects.

[emmie]

has been a help with a number of things, not least that last clue in the crossword, and the cross section of views, on music, politics, and endless other interesting subjects.

[EDDIE51]

It has not changed my views , just made me more aware of the ignorance / intolerance/ prejudice of a few others. On the posative side it has given me contact with some very intelligent , knowledgeable and helpful people as well.
Overall it has broadened my horizon.

[venator]

If you really want me to say it

"over time,that AB has made you more mellow,civilised,tolerant..Or,more cynical,intolerant,fuming.."

anything to please...

[rowanwitch]

I like helping people..... and having a bit of a laugh with those as daft as I am...


As a person it has affected me deeply but only because I met someone from here who has changed how I feel about a lot of things.

[NOX]

It's quite hard to make me mellow, civilised or tolerant and although I'm open to my mind being changed if someone has a really good argument to back up their POV, I don't think it's happened on here to be honest.
What has happened is that I have found myself wondering about and worryi9ng about people on here who I know who are ill or in some sort of trouble or anxiety. I find myself frequently wondering how Moyra is for example, even though I've never met her or am ever likely to- I think people extend their warmth and that has a positive impact as well as the ones who extend their unpleasanter sides.
