    To be fair, I don't think I have ever seen this forum more united than when that second thread was posted. It's like the moment Tumblr nonsense creeps its way over everyone just stops and forms a temporary truce, xD

    A mentor stole my house, slapped me across the face, and raised my ping from 15 to 30. Literally unplayable.

    All jokes aside, I suspect the more vitriolic posting habits have increased due to numerous conversational topics brought up regarding the game. Let's see, we have:

    - A potential jump potion
    - Difficulty of dungeons
    - Healer DPS or lack thereof
    - Combat changes and how they may effect the game
    - What jobs everyone wants

    While some of these are more heated discussions than others, they all prompt highly vocal disagreement which may come across "toxic". Whether it is or not is up to interpretation.
