Yeah, I have to say it hasn't been the same in a long time. Lately, I've seen at least a noise level increase in certain folks who are interested in nothing more than starting up ridiculous flame wars (and, sadly, as appears to be human nature, others who can't avoid falling right into the trap of participating).
Not sure what the fix is, because the problem began to manifest itself in the other incarnation of the bulletin boards - it's not the current format that's to blame. It's a symptom of TMS' growth in popularity.
So, it's great we've drawn all kinds of people to the site, but now we need to find a way to get a grip on the troublemakers.
