"Spot on - balance and reasoning play a huge part between being considered "preachy" and being someone with an opinion
Sadly all too often here lately though, even with balance and reasoning, appears you can't express an opinion without someone either taking offence, or reading some kind of sleight or hidden agenda into it  | |||

"We have some strong personalities who aren't afraid to express their opinion and back it up. On the whole I like it. It only bothers me if people get personal with each other. I don't think you have to like or agree with everyone. I have often food food for thought in such discussions." This. A forum is, by definition, a place for ideas and opinions to be exchanged and debated. I enjoy debate, and will often join in with threads that interest me. I am fully prepared to have my opinion questioned, as I will question others whose opinion I either don't understand or disagree with - it's a marvellous way to learn, and doesn't mean that you have to agree with everyone else's opinion, we're all different and have different beliefs, and that's perfectly acceptable. I see the "preachers" as the OP calls them simply as people that are passionate in their beliefs. The only thing that I don't like (other than when people get personal), is when people step in and tell people to stop arguing and be nice to each other - it's not an argument, it's an exchange of opinions, there's a distinct difference. As the mods would advise, scroll to a different thread if you don't want to read it. | |||

That said, most would ban you if you opine on Donald Trump and wave your tackle in the air at the same time. On here, that's just tautology. | |||

"Depends entirely what you're referring to, as your perception of "preaching" could be another persons perception of expression or passion. I can get "preachy" about certain things. Why? Because they are things that have I have lived, things that have impacted me. And if my expression, my honesty and the lessons could potentially stop another person going through those things, or even get people to stop and think for just a moment then I'll carry on "preaching" If someone is passionate about something it's generally born from experience. You may not agree with anothers _iews or opinions but they do matter. They may not matter to you but that matter to them, and you can't take away someones life experiences just coz you haven't lived that life. We never stop learning unless we are too stubborn or too foolish to believe we already know everything. On that note.... Preach out Princess Preach
Damn fucking straight!
Oh, and my _iews are always right.
Maybe not right for everyone, but right for me. And it's great when people offer their _iews because sometimes even a genius like me can have my own _iews made even "righter" for me by learning from other people and tweaking my own shizzle."I adore you..you know that x | |||

Love that. I have found most people won't budge from there _iews especially over the internet. They just argue their point over and over and then it's not actually a discussion. | |||

"If I can wade through the "rate my ass" "who's your favourite" general attention seeking/lamppost pissing threads I'll let you know
Haha don't see many of those threads around these days. Well not as much as they used to prelockdown. It was almost daily years back... so maybe forums have changed
Bound to happen. Keeping the rif-raf out, and better advertising. Apparently site owners have done a half-page spread on Horse and Hounds and I believe Fab comes up first when you search for Avocado on Waitrose. Very handy, and the click-through rate is extemely high. All those frustrated fillies wanting something more satisfying than a breadstick... Chocks Away!

"Spot on - balance and reasoning play a huge part between being considered "preachy" and being someone with an opinion
Sadly all too often here lately though, even with balance and reasoning, appears you can't express an opinion without someone either taking offence, or reading some kind of sleight or hidden agenda into it
Guilty conscience there?
None in the slightest - and I stand by every word I say either here or elsewhere. I express an opinion, provide balance and reasoning for that opinion and am prepared for it to be challenged - if others choose to read more into that than is intended then frankly not my problem and nothing to feel guilty about whatsoever." | |||
