Seems like it's going the way of imdb. Getting to be so many posts by trolls that are being douches on purpose, generally complaining about things being "too woke" or "not woke enough." Or politics. It'd be nice if everyone could knock it off so it doesn't just shut down like imdb was. Just a bummer, because all these years later, and this is the best successor I've found, and it's not even a tenth as great as imdb was in its heyday (I know, mods, you're trying, and like I said, it's the best, so not throwing shade at you). And it's taken time to build up. Anything I've found that's more active tends to be for a specific show or something and who has time for that. Probably trolls.

This is just the reality of all online communities. There's no escaping angry posters or trolls because people finally have access to the attention of others in a major way and they're not going to stop, so the best you can do is try and filter out the nonsense while spending as much time offline as you can - otherwise, being online becomes unbearable.

It does suck though, because a lot of it is nonsense and it's annoying to get bogged down by it when you just come to chat about movies and general discussion.
