Not pointing at anyone specifically here, just a quick comment. If anyone for one second thinks the moderation here is too strong, go on over to TriumphRat.net and try and start any off topic discussion. Their Moderator's Hammer of Smitingâ„¢ is just as big as ours but they've used it so much they've worn several out. WHAM-WHAM-WHAM and before you know it the head pops right off. They can be quite brutal over there.
The biggest "problem," if you can call it that, is some of the more arrogant newbies that come in here and think they can do whatever they want, without spending some time getting a feel for the "culture" here. They push buttons, they push limits, and eventually it comes to a head with much drama. In the end it's a tempest in a teapot and the newbie in question "learns their place" or leaves. One was forced out.
Granted, this is a very small percentage of newbies, but the net effect can be tremendous.
