If you continually reply to the same user in the conversation, over and over, is that emblematic of good discourse?[/quote]
It can be, it depends on the conversation. Certainly sometimes things have degraded, but there have been other times when I think the discourse has been productive. There is no hard and fast rule.
No one is enjoying conversations on the internet. It is the hell you slog through because someone, somewhere is WRONG and They. Must. Be. Corrected.
