Seems to me some threads end up in a slanging match . Maybe create a 'time out' forum, so readers can vent their anger away from the subject matter. I remember something similar on another site.

I felt this from moment i came to forums it like to me there hierachy that if you don't abide by a groups of people like oust you or just try and say what every you are saying is dumb and then irnoicly make fun of it happend with me when I talk about the dark parts of sexual discussion and people weaponised the report button

Maybe the mods could set up a 'time out' page and move the thread there, people can slag each other off as much as they want then and thread can continue fresh from personal attacks. Spoils the fun for me when posts get nasty.

Mods don't time out threads. They just straight up time out users and delete threads. There's little point in timing out threads because people will just wait for it to be activated again and go right back at it.

You spend enough time in the forums you'll know who are in what cliques and who to just flat out avoid engaging. It's damming with faint praise for me to say that the rules about not directly slanging any users has forced me to learn to get real creative and snarky with my passive aggressiveness sometimes.

Reaching for the popcorn is one of the best features of the forums.

You get people that are nice.

You get people that are argumentative.

You get people that are sarcastic.

You get people that are funny.

You get people that are insightful.

You get people that are boring.

It's kinda like life, variety is good.

Agree with this 100%! Not everyone on here is for us and we’re not for everyone on here. The variety and differences are what make this place fun

Maybe people could behave like grown ups and disagree without censure.

Some people just go around looking for arguments, and some people take this whole thing far too seriously.

Stay lighthearted people

what about helpfulness isn't that what a forum is for to share ideas not to share all ways why stuff shouldn't work but to solve why they should and discuss and debate not just shit all over victimise

From some of the threads I’ve read and the way the OP and participants can be attacked with vicious words is no less than bullying. Do these people act this way in person or hide just behind the keyboard?

In sites where I've seen it, it's called the Thunderdome.
