Yeah, I think that embedding the hangout sessions on our chat page would definitely be nifty little thing to do as it would allow members who don't have any a/v setup to still be able to see & hear everything, and to ask those who are in the Hangout questions, etc. I'll have to talk to Reese about upgrading my status a little bit, though, to give me Page creation & editing rights on the site. Not sure how he will feel about that; although he did say that he might grant that ability to somebody when he made his comment in Tom's thread about the "New Crew".
That idea kinda died a quiet death, btw, for anybody who might be curious... but there are still a few of us who have been steadily talking about ways to potentially improve and rejuvenate the site; so, stay tuned. There still may be some good changes coming. ;-)

Anthony D replied to Lore's discussion Condemning others to validate ourselves."An issue in the context of your reply is the so-called "mad/bad debate". And it very much plays into the perception of these rather extreme forms of criminal behavior.

Lore replied to Lore's discussion Condemning others to validate ourselves."Interesting. I think that just being aware that our behavior is not always justified and taking on some personal responsibility can go a long way."
Lore replied to Lore's discussion Condemning others to validate ourselves."Maybe I take empathy and attempting to understand such actions by people to the extreme, but I think it is important to understand the causes of such behavior. You do bring up a good point about school shootings Nathaniel, in that the media makes…"
Nathaniel Mortazavi replied to Lore's discussion Condemning others to validate ourselves."I agree with the principle to an extent. However, in the case of school shooters, I don't think it can be justified. Same with rape. There's definitely a line, but like you said, those are the most extreme cases.
