Thank you! So far I’ve got two ingredients: enlightened moderation and the elimination of this “soapbox”. As I’ve said, I haven’t been around long enough to see how toxic this forum was. Is it still archived somewhere? I’d like to see it as a museum piece. Mircea
It didn't get closed, it got nuked.
M.D.V. ;) If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about? Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

Good moderation makes or breaks a community. There have been some trolls here and there - i got trolled last week here, but the staff tends to keep it to a minimum.

Adding to Gary's answer: eliminating the Soapbox. Many liked the feature, but it definitely brought out the worst in some people. Chris unequivocally said "No" when that was closed. My hat is off to him for that decision.

I agree. It didn't add much of anything to the community except drama. People took it as an excuse to be their worst selves, and it didn't really match the overall theme here.
