The board really has gotten very negative. Anyone new gets chased off almost immediatly. In the "bad" times you were talking about I feel I was a major contributer to some negative debates (A.G. Awesome era). I havnt gotten into any fights since returning, though Ive been tempted. I really dont bother coming here much anymore though. Nothing but arguments getting posts and intelligent threads disappearing.
