6. At any given time
we can easily see in excess of 50% of the threads here being complete garbage. There are sometimes when things are fairly civil and constructive, but there are just as many times where there is just an insane storm of nonsense or vile hatred. I do not believe I was ever really sensitive to it in the first place. This is an anonymous forum, and people here have strong opinions. A great deal of those strong opinions are going to run counter to a significant portion of the people here. And with the mindset of many posters, attacks from one side simply fuel counter attacks, which fuel counter-counter attacks, which.....you get the drift. I really have no expectation of this forum being a model of civility. So long as I can come here and see a semblance of discourse and possibly even find genuine information here and there, this forum will continue to serve its purpose.
