I've generally found people on most forums to be OK. As far as I go, personally, I can only recall one or two times when I've had a nasty comment aimed at me by someone who's previously been polite and nice. I generally assume it's because they're having a bad time and back off and leave them to it. I've never been involved, touch wood, in a major flame war.

However, there are certain music sites I don't go on now. Two words: conspiracy theories. I've witnessed so many other people trashed for holding the 'wrong' opinion, that I simply don't want to get involved any more.

yeah ive met people i dont like in forums. Not many but some people seem to like the privacy of the internet cos they can get away with being nasty and saying things they wouldnt dream of in real life. I quite often dont like the silly hierarchy that goes off in forums i.e. if youve been there longest, have so many posts and a flashy avatar everything you say is true. Ive not see that so much here but in some places its rife.
