Is it just me or is the internet, especially the gamer community slowly going insane. I mean I remember when some games had different communities, people would ask questions, get answers and people would try to draw others to their games.
Or just in general, forums would have some interesting posts and a few flame wars.....but now, seems like all I see on all general chat on these games is whining, bitching and insults back and forth.
ALL I SEE ON THESE FORUMS is sad angry people... sad angry people yelling at each other all god damn day.
Bout the best you can hope for is an assholey smart ass remark that's funny, that's what constitutes character and wit.. blaahh.. just really fucked up, if anything I'd look at what's happening to people to answer the question do mmo's have an effect on behavior..
Not just game forums and such but the Internet in general seems just a bit more grim these days, who knows. Maybe it was always this way but, I don't think to the degree it is now, everyone is wound up so damn tight you have to brace yourself anytime you voice any opinion what so ever on here.
What's making everyone so bitchy, think we need to throw some PMS meds in the water supply.
I'm sure you'll find some grand examples of what I'm talking about below.

i think you are hallucinating
i didnt really notice people getting dumber the past couple years on forums ...
i guess you can say the people on the internets are getting dumber but not these forums, atleast not the OT
People aren't getting dumber, you're getting smarter. Plus, I got banned from Bungie.net forums today for no reason at all (wtf!?). I will agree that some mods nowadays are power hungry, but I really don't want to start that debate on here again. MMORPG.com mods are teh pwnsauce
...then as the smoke clears, you get "but i should be able to call anyone i want a *^%&($#@ i don't care if it's a mod or not THIS IS A PUBLIC FORUM AND THESE ARE MY RIGHTS"
hehehe.. internet people are funny.

No, but I literally did nothing, I really think they banned me on accident. My posts are always reasonable unless they're in a specific forum for spam or something. I rarely ever just respond with "lol" or "u noob" and I never flame.
It's not that people are getting dumber, it's that more dumb people are getting access to the internet. It's a fine but crucial difference!
I didn't say they were getting dumber, I said they spent most of thier time insulting one another and bitching and whining.
ANGRY.
and these forums wasn't talking specificly about the OT section, look around browse the game forums, all there is, someone asking a question and everyone ripping eachother apart after that.
of course I think you might be right, more people having access to the internet..hmmmm....
See thats why no one dares to venture out of the OT section....
The internet has become democratic. Meaning available to all morons of the Rich World.
And that's a lot of morons.
How I crave for the day when it was something elitist.

When are people going to learn that an internet community is no different than any other community. You get the whole spectrum of people. You take the bad with the good.
I've had that same feeling about the world in General for some time now. In my community, people have become aggressive, in eveything they do. People in the health care industry seem disinterested in what they are doing. It's really hard to find a smile, or even a friendly word. Maybe it's that syndrome, forget what it's called, when you get too many rats in a cage they go ballistic and start killing each other, or stop interacting, and implode. I've noticed it in myself as well, I can hardly make myself leave the house, and when I do I'm actually frightened by other people and the way they drive . same way in my games. I hate to party anymore, and it's as if most of the people in games either dont interact, or are hostile and greedy when they do. Who knows, maybe, just I have gone mad, and the rest are fine.
Agent Smith : I'd like to share a...revelation I had, during my time here.
It came to me when I tried to...classify your species. I
realized that you're not actually mammals. Every mammal on
this planet instinctively develops a natural equilibrium with
the surrounding environment but...you humans do not. You
move to an area...and you multiply until every natural
resource is consumed. The only way you can survive is to..
spread to another area. There is another organism on this
planet that follows the same pattern. Do you know what it is?
A virus.
