You also contradict yourself by saying 'I am open to your opinions' but then state that 'spending time reading the last bit didn't seem like it was going to be worth the effort'.
This only proves that you are not.

Maybe if you laid it out a bit better instead of offering a wall of text?

Paragraphs are your friend...

Okay, I'm not open to every opinion out there. I'm open to opinions if I think they are based on something proper. What I read from you seemed mostly based on misconceptions and some kind of personal ill-feeling and I didn't really value them. Perhaps the rest of your essay is better founded, but if I think there are higher quality opinions around to read, I'm more inclined to spend time on them than working my way through your wall of text.

You should take Zarko's advice by the way.

I really do hope people arent this sensitive on here.
He made a conclusion that I judged Bono because of his wealth which to me is ridiculous.
As for me being 'predisposed' to insulting people a bit of an overexaggeration there me thinks...

They are, especially in this thread. Things tend to get heated quickly and the mods like to put out any flames before the fire. Its a great concept other than the non-mod thread nazis.

EDIT: And tore is actually the person on this thread who I feel is the most open to peoples opinions.

Firstly you only see it as 'misconceptions' because you dont agree with it. For instance it wouldnt be a 'misconception' if I actually liked the album.
My opinions is based on my perception of the music. How is that not 'something proper'.
I dont really care, I aint going to stop writing so many 'paragraphs' just because you said so or that somebody else does it..
After all 'paragraphs are my friends' after all arent they??

It has got nothing to do with actually understanding what you are writing, it has to do with the readability of your posts. If something is a mess, people are less inclined to read it.

Is it that hard to press 'enter' twice instead of once, once in a while?

Based on your U2 area of discussion, your opinion of him seems based on his life outside of music (After suggesting a lot of their music is quality). How can someone be musically overrated based on their hypocrisy in regards to charity anyway?

You obviously don't understand what a paragraph is, so we will skip that point altogether.
