I see what you're saying; but I just think this place is fun, and a bit of harmless fuckin' around hasn't hurt anyone. Most of us find each other's rants and idiosyncrasies amusing and almost endearing.
The last thing I would want is a sterile forum for fourteen year old girls.
I'll have to bite my lip and begrudgingly agree with you.
What kind of a homogenised forum are you promoting? Who wants their local e-hangout to become a back-slapping happy fest where everyone agrees with everyone else.
Looking back over the most recent posts - it's hardly the feral pit of negativity you make it out to be.
Everyone likes a rant now and then. Occasionally somebody will let rip on somebody else. I'd tow the line at actual threats of physical violence or malicious intimidation tactics - and would expect the majority of posters here to follow suit.
Look, a number of us are shallow, self serving forum smart-asses. And that's ok in small doses - which is all I see here.
No need to get all jiggity and upset.
But, seeing as I didn't create the forum as such, I'm prepared to pull my head in if need be.
