O.P. Treat the forum like a real community
I'm pretty much tired of everyone being so angry on here.

Every time someone posts something they don't care about, there's always a flock of people right there to spit in their face.

The Flamer attitude that people have causes anger to the Flamee.

The Flamee retaliates to some extent, be it big or small, in more anger.

Flamers, with big enough post counts, use their privilege of giving reputations to degrade the Flamee to the extent that he is even more angry.

The attitudes of many forum members, make that community members are too much.

This may just be my opinion. If so, I need to find somewhere else to visit.

Is this just my opinion?

(You'll probably see a couple posts that resemble the ones of which I'm speaking)

Blah, this one seems to be talking about a specific issue, compared to others which were well more general.. And although I started hating this kind of threads, I don't mind this one at all.

Back to the subject,

I just want to say that I share your opinion.
(Although I realize there is not much that me posting this will change.)

And it's 404 :cheesy:

:rolleyes:

It's actually funny when it comes from people who go around repping positively members who break the rules all the time, and then call the rest of us names in those reps.

Hack, hack, hack!

Natzi forum. :o

Hm.. I always think twice before giving a new to someone. And some members do deserve the flaming, and it helps them change (most of the times, *ahem*).. and then people update their reps.

Look, I don't enjoy having to be the one to say it, but if you aren't happy, how about reporting the posts instead of making this useless thread in the first place.

its not meaning less, i agree with him, the quality of this forum HAS degraded seriously, reporting posts doesn't change the attitude, the damaged still gets done, the only way to get it change is everybody changes their attitude. and stop flaming the shit out of anybody with an opinion different then yours, unless its totally off the wall like "lets all cut off our balls and send them to <insert forum member here>"(and even then if  you know they're obviously joking, then ignore it), then you should respect their opinion.

A difference of opinion is not a wrong opinion.
