This is very similar to my feelings as far as arguing in person goes. I've never been a fan of confrontation, and I'd much prefer to talk things out and listen than elevate to shouting and/or repeating my stance over and over.
I do agree with decensored though that debate is important in a forum setting, and that it is all about execution. Some of the biggest tiffs in this place are from misunderstanding another user (taking things personally, negatively, thinking they're putting their position down, being under the impression there's only 1 way to do things, etc)
