Don't be so bitter. Look past the topic names; go to a few posts that actually provide constructive comments and feedback and those friendly users who don't lash at at the silliest things. Look at those with the patience to deal with trolls, white-knights or whatever derogatory terms the community has brought up with those members who are in disagreement. Underneath the pile of s*it heaped up on top, we have a few flowers growing underneath. It's what makes these forums a bit more bearable.

I admit; I've done my share of raging at people, and sometimes I regret it. But when people deliberately insult me for no reason save because I disagreed with them or they took my words in twisted in into something else, I'll get mad and insult them with vigour and sophistication worthy of a politician. So it's impossible to stop the rages of flames that can go on in such a large community. But overall, I don't find it a displeasure to lurk around the forums and provide my opinions at times.

It's true that the game community is much fairer and polite, but we can't shaft the forum community away because of it. We have the game's equivalent of a blacklist; we can use it. Sooner or later, those members who repeatedly dog the threads and boards will find themselves ignored, getting raged at in an appropriate manner, and potentially give up altogether. For now, lets enjoy what it has to offer us.
