PaterAlf: If everybody would do that 95% of the insults would be gone and the forum would be a much better place again.
Jokes aside, I completely agree with you. Just a bit of civility could solve issues...well, many places, not just the forum. I could post the joke of #MakeGOGGreatAgain if not for the fact that I know it would cause a storm. And the fact that I have to worry about it causing a storm is terrible (I'm just doing it here because this thread is a mess anyways, but you get my point).
PaterAlf: Back then there were also some assholes and some hard discussions. But most of the time people expressed there oppinions quite politely and respected or at least tolerated other points of view. Today it's "Fuck you!", insults or name-calling within seconds.
I am going to partially attribute this to the number of people here, though. For every three decent people who come in, there's inevitably one person who also comes in just looking to throw around insults and stir up trouble. This is true anywhere on the internet. *annoying voice* Well, it's not MY fault you're ugly!
