It brings out the worst in everyone who posts here, myself included. Which is why I don't post much.
And no that is NOT an apology for anything, in fact it's another general insult.
Nah, it's weak. The hatred was so much more pure and scathing (and entertaining) in IMDb days.

To almost quote the Joker, this board needs an enema!
shareIt'll only bring out the worst in you if you let it. You can't just take it so serious, and remember that it is only movies that your debating with people. There are far worse situations in the world than fighting with other Star Wars fans. Like if you lived in some war torn country, and were starving for food.
I always try to give the person I disagree with the most respectful response I can to their argument. No matter how much I might disagree with them. I've had a lot of very well mannered debates on these forums as a result.
That's certainly how most posters, myself included, behave on every board on this forum that doesn't involve the rageaholic Star Wars "fanboys".
They're, uh, a special breed...
I agree with you here, I generally don't get angry about anything posted here. Its movies and shows, not life or death. I would say that the only toxic parts of the boards is involving the politics.
shareThat's true, I completely avoid the political boards. Really, most of the boards on this forum are civilized enough and it's possible to have some very interesting discussions. There are just a couple of spots that are "toxic waste dumps", and the "Last Jedi" board is one of them.
Nothing new here: religious people thinking that people who don't share their religion are a toxic waste dump.
But for some reason, instead of posting it in some progressist religion forum, it's posted in a movie forum. Oldest story in the book: it's hard for religious people to keep their religion in private, instead of trying to evangelize everybody :(
Exactly. This is just another opportunity for virtue signaling.
shareIt's a good board, actually. It really helps you see beyond the bought for film ratings.
I just wish it also had the rest of the imdb features - actor names, films they stared in, film synopsis, etc.
If it did, I'd never have to visit imdb ever again.
