Constuctive criticism in official forums is a hugely valuable thing to a software developer. It's here that they get feedback on areas that they can possibly improve in sequels. However, anyone who is familiar with forums soon finds that a lot of threads can quickly devolve into mindless rants with worthless arguments being thrown about and  conversations quickly deviating from topic.

I reccomend everyone point their browsers to the link below and learn about Logicial Fallacies.

www.theskepticsguide.org/resources/logicalfallacies.aspx

Any worthwhile argument or counter-argument needs to avoid every one of these logical fallacies if you are to be taken seriously and not some juvinile-minded, socially inept forum troll. Knowledge of these fallacies will improve your ability to argue and criticise in a constructive way and make you a better critical thinker rather than a wooly-minded muppet

I personally think the most common logical fallacies found in forums are the Straw Man and the Ad Hominim. Ad Hominim in particular will be seen most in flame war threads.

It's always nice to remember to be excellent to each other, but this isn't really DAO related. Sorry.



End of line.
