The threads I've enjoyed the most are where the person on the other end and I have completely opposing views.
Off the top of my head, over the past year, I've had fairly furious debates with Ward~Minter, admarlow, anotheoldgit and I think Emma66 (I may have that one wrong).
No - you shouldn't EVER give out personal details, and I think this is why this board works...because it's completely inpersonal. I don't believe that anyone could make personal remarks about me because you only know the 'virtual me'.
I mean, we don't even know each others names, and in some cases sexes.
Therefore, let the debate continue.
By the way, my real name is Robbie Williams. Yes, the Robbie Williams.
...and I would like to admit that I have no talent and a forehead so wide that you could show 'Gladiator' on it.
