discourse community
Wiki has many unwritten rules. Rule number one, is that you should be respectful of other members while at the same time expressing your ideas as well. Even if we don't agree with other peoples ideas we shouldn't attack someones else thoughts but instead disagree in a respectful and mature manner. Rule number two, is that we should all have goals and purposes according to achieve our goal of communication (which was mentions in Borgs reading). I think that we need to take it seriously and not use the blog as just a joke. People really put a lot of effort and time into what they think and write and would appreciate it of you did the same. Rule number three, be creative, and have fun. If your not having fun then it wouldn't be worth it! The more fun you have the more you look forward to posting!

I agree with you on the fact that its important to respect other peoples opinions even if we do not necessarily agree with them ourselves.
I also agree that it is important to respect other opinions, regradless of one's own persoanl views. Within a discourse community, everyone is working toward a common goal. This goal will not be reached as easily if people are constantly bashing one another's views.
I agree that you should respect others opinions on something like a class wiki. Sometimes though, I feel that by stating you disagree with someone or don't get what their point is, people automatically think you are disrespecting them. I think difference of opinion is always good because it forces people to think in new ways and develop other alternatives to fully be able to back up their beliefs.
