It is natural that we often agree with each other, yet there is often always something we can add to the discussions, we have different experiences, we have different cultures and this creates a diversity of opinions.

So what does it take some (few) members to express their opinion "I agree with ...." usually after a reputable member? when I have nothing to add, I stay with my thoughts.
Being able to choose between being a pawn or a player, I'm a player and you?

One could ask "disagree with what?" As one could ask "agree with what?"
I would prefer complete thoughts be presented so as to add to the conversation however, "agreeing" causes less harm than "disagreeing"
So, I disagree that agreeing is a bad thing - but it doesn't add anything to the discussion.
