I've not been here for a long time... But when I just came in the forums again for the last few days, I am quite surprised at the "hot" atmosphere here ? What happened ? Has the SPWAW forums atmosphere changed ? It used to be very warm and friendly here, but now there are quite a number of "hot threads".

It's kinda sad to see this used-to-be friendly forum turned into fighting zone like many of the forums out there...

forgive my bluntness

BL, you're an idiot! Just kidding.

I read the Forum every day and I just don't see what everyone is all worked up about. If passions run high in a thread, that makes good reading to me. Maybe I'm missing these "hot" threads because I'm not interested in the content of these particular threads, but I read about 80% of the threads and I've seen, "Why is everyone so nasty?" posted more often than I think to myself, "Wow, what a nasty thread." I think Grenadier also just posted a new thread with the same statement you made, which makes by point, if you get my meaning.

I think people should start giving examples or call others on their rude behavior within the actual threads rather than just posting a new thread saying why is everyone so mean.
And, I wasn't trying to be mean in this thread. It's just that I wouldn't have had the feeling that this place has gone to hell if I hadn't read all these threads about people being nastry.

Maybe tomorrow evening KG's Bar will be open for business. We can have a few cold ones, pizza, hot dogs and then a group burp.

I believe they call it mass auto-suggestion, my dear Dr. Rb.

So kind of you to enlighten me, Professor Charles. And may I say, that's a lovely _ you have in your name now.

Oh I've had it for ages ol' man.

On further review, I believe your avatar has something to do with the mass auto-suggestion, as it looks a bit hypnotic, but I'm afraid my theory dashes to the ground if you didn't become a part of those threads.
