Yeah, lol. I’m staff member on another forum, but political discussions and controversial topics are banned period. It’s so much better that way. Although I do find some controversial topics interesting if we can debate like adults. It’s only bad when it gets out of hand.Have to say I've noticed more of the woke slurs and "omg agatha, 85 onions" especially with political stuff but yeah those social media trolls need to calm their chests. But yeah I try to avoid most.
I wouldn't say forums is better but it also depends on how it's dealt with and if staff punish both sides rather than one but then it also depends on demographics and topic I'd say.
