Maybe not. But this isn't about the meek - its about the fact this dynamic forces the forum to be full of only the most stubborn and brutish people who can muster the tenacity to stick around despite the fact not one, but a group of members, will invariably find fault with them and try and run them outta town.
I'm stubborn as ****, and I've taken breaks from this place because I just don't want to deal with the high tides of dickishness that come from certain posses of members acting as a unit to be dicks to people.
I've never had to do that on any other forum I've ever been a part of, because on those forums, one ******* is just that - one *******, and you can usually just go "Get a load of this *******" and turn the argument back on them. Here the *******s have semi-constant backup.
