What are some of the things that irritate you relative to how members communicate and how to improve the manner in which we discuss and debate the issues?
​
Not using caps to start sentences or writing 'i' when one should write 'I'.
​
I have no problems with swearing.
​
It is an additional mode of communication to convey emotion: in many cases exasperation.
​
Oh, and the dreaded 'wall of text' can fuck off, too.

Numbs the pain
On a noter note why do these sware words act as a pain reliever. If you curse when you are in pain you fel less pain than if you do not.
​
One swaps the avoidance response for an aggression response. Either of the fight or flight behaviours is called for when felling pain.
​
As we are taking some form of action we feel more in control and if we feel in control we can suffer more distress.
