DM is a pretty vocal forum, yet we have multitudes of silent readers here! I think slam book is a neat concept.

I wasnt contesting that. What I meant to say was that apart from the slambook the posts also reveal abt the member.

In DM, people sometime take a stand on a topic and debate it.This might not be their actual views on the topic.

And slambook sketches a good silhouette of the person, whereas the opinion expressed can be viewed as their voice. Am trying to draw a simile here.Hope I didn't confuse anyone.

I wasnt refuting the idea or use of slambook.

'If' the views expressed are 'not true' then its far easier to disguise the slambook. Slambook is a fun concept mixed with your likes/interests which are non questionable. Whereas posting views is more serious and open to questioning.

I do believe that what the members post are their views though at times they might not consciously accept them but at some level its them. You cant lie like that.
