I like the people here, but I don't much appreciate some of the apsects of the culture. I definitely think it can improve.

Because of the way forums work, drama between two or a few users can pretty much overshadow most else that goes on. It is extremely visible and so is bad culture in general.

By the way, how is punishing someone who flames or trolls the same as punishing everyone?
