[Transformers] Have the Transformers ever tried talking to each other about their problems?

Have the Autobots and Decepticons tried debating each other? Or do they just fight each other?

Follow up question: are all Transformers warriors or are some poets, chefs, politicians, actors, etc.?

Yes they have! For a long time they tried to settle things by way of votes and debates in their Senate. The problem was the ruling class at the time was very entrenched and were NOT interested in hearing any dissent.  

One of the biggest social issues was the belief that your alt-mode determined your function. So tanks, drills, other large equipment fellas ended up working the mines.  One of these was Megatron, who was not interested in being a miner, he was far more interested in being a poet. Unfortunately after he was arrested in a bar fight he was savagely beaten by a dirty cop as a way of trying to keep him in line. Ut didn't work and led directly towards Megatron using violence to make his point.

As to your follow-up question, yes. Magatron was a poet, Slog was an artist. Jazz was VERY into music. Mirage, Blurr, and Drag Strip were pro athletes. There were a lot of Cycbertronians before the war who had other proffesions. After the war started a lot more of them started to be built just as soldiers.
