Ah yes. I'm more of the kind to avoid flame wars whenever possible. Even when I was a lowly newbie, I knew what battles to join, and what not to join simply because, well, I started mostly as a lurker for most forums. Though I guess that makes me a "Me Too" kind of guy since I'd usually only join a discussion if others were already in it in the first place.
There are a few exceptions of course, and usually this involves politics. Given how bad the situation can deteriorate due to bringing up politics, needless to say, I now avoid most discussion of it whenever possible.
