What drives a person to repeatedly engage in fruitless, uncivilized discourse with no reward other than sheer exhaustion or frustration?

Self-hatred. I feel like some diametrically opposed posters spit vitriol at each other more on a daily basis then they talk to their friends and loved ones. If I had a heart, it would probably ache for them.

What drives a person to repeatedly engage in fruitless, uncivilized discourse with no reward other than sheer exhaustion or frustration? It is precisely for the reasons you mentioned that I
am now to be found on private club fora.
In there you do not have to endure the abuse
given out readily and regularly on the fora you
mentioned along with the clan forum also.
I very rarely visit the public fora anymore.

I very rarely visit the public fora anymore. Fora moment I had to reread your response.

I very rarely visit the public fora anymore. Guess I have something to thank them for after all.

What drives a person to repeatedly engage in fruitless, uncivilized discourse with no reward other than sheer exhaustion or frustration? Near total subjective preoccupation with themselves with little if any concern for the needs and happiness of others.

I wouldn't exactly call them 'scum of the earth', that sounds at least a little harsh.

I very rarely visit the public fora anymore. Even there, some of us (ahem) get into trouble, eh? 🙂

"Harsh", for sure. Tone of meaning is 90% of communication; words, per se, 10%.

Private clubs, by definition, function on good faith in others while exercising the freedom of being yourself. Posturing with ulterior motives and hidden agendas doesn't fit. Immaturity always causes its own grief.
