Yeah it's a hit and miss; that's the nature of internet forums. Sometimes you get a treasure trove of support and assistance and comradery, other times you'll want to type out a 6,000 word response to another poster because being right is more important than hitting ignore. To each their own...
I've noticed lately that even the forum goer numbers are declining in addition to what i've seen in game (at least on Indom). Makes me temper my responses to threads with folks I don't agree with, because I don't want folks to leave this community (even if I don't agree with them). Even the folks I've put on ignore, I don't want them to leave the game. Gotta keep the community strong.
Edit: the You/your in this post is the third person use, meaning it is applicable to all posters, not you specifically Kaizen
