Just had a look in here today, and it's rather depressing how some posters are being incredibly immature for seemingly no reason. For example in Krony's thread, people were lambasting him for posting a world record score that someone else achieved.

Seriously, it's ridiculous. Why are some people acting like this? I know it's the easter holidays and all, but it's no excuse.
 
Fact of life, lots of fellas being all macho and whatnot wouldn't utter a peep in the presence of 'real life' company. Something i've found a lot here is bandwagon jumping and oneupmanship, talking down to others etc.. seems theres a lot of immaturity in the forums, possibly age related, also veiled jealousy.. in the real world they'd probably not even think of it.

Guess it's the old "Hey, I'm safe behind my keyboard and screen, lets be a turd!" mentality, just like on youtube then. Which doesn't make it any better.

One of the reasons I stay clear of here unless I am offering or asking for advice. There is zero capacity for a mature discussion in here. Most people avoid this area and I can understand why.

I am sure there used to be a time when it wasn't like this. Fair play to the mods, they do a good job in here and it certainly isn't th easiest of places to moderate.

haha its almost the whole forum really. I browse GD and motors and see it all the time, no so much the hardware sections but theres a few TW fox wannabes there and they can't pull it off lol. I fear its the 'new' man of this century, coddled and told they can be and do anything they please, and get quite angry when others disagree and prove them wrong or things don't go their way. I work in a school as an I.T tech/admin and can honestly say i am scared about the future of this country when i look at some of the kids, and its a good school!

If people think this forum is bad enough, check out the EA Battlefield 3 Uk Forum lol:p

The forum with negativity everywhere and immense usage of the legendary word lalalalala :D

http://forums.electronicarts.co.uk/battlefield-3/

Some quotes from the forum :p

You know, few months back, i also wanted the same thing, that nobody should buy CQ, but i think that it doesnt matter, DICE are so big lalalalalalabags that they will never listen to us, it doesnt matter if you buy CQ or not, i think battlefield is over...

I say, just ignore the new guns and do not buy this lalalala. Let's not fund the death of battlefield.

When in doubt, blame consoles.

Blame DICE, they can still make huge maps and just scale them down for consoles. It ain't hard and you know it isn't. They just choose not to due to one or more of:

Being stupid
Laziness
Lack of resources
EA (lol)
