I figured that for most of fandom, inserting their $.02 is more imperative than to actually think of what's going on and how can peace be most easily restored (usually by hushing up, ESPECIALLY when they are not the active players).
Yeah, and I can't say I've never been tempted by that one - I tend to try to avoid sounding off in public by finding a couple of trusted friends to write/speak to if I'm feeling insecure or need to let off steam. I guess LJ's weird mix of interactivity and broadcast makes it more difficult to see appropriate boundaries.
