I can see where the OP is coming from and I appreciate his/her intentions. It appears that it comes from a place of respect and tolerance. ♥
It also comes from a person who registered in 2012 and has only spent around a day's worth of time in total here a the forums. I remember when I started. Ah, the passion. The investment. The dedication. It was during the jstrodel era. It didn't take long for me to figure out that you can't take things too seriously and sometimes you just have to laugh it out.
In my case, the "sometimes" has turned to "most of the time", but that's just me. This is my happy zone in an otherwise stressful world.
I say pick your battles. There will be those who are worth your effort and respect. Take those seriously if you like. Have a healthy discussion and make good use of any special argumentation skills you might have. There will be those who are just full of it, so don't mind those who wish to play around with the excess shit that overflows from their contributions.
As for me, I'll just keep cruising the forums being incredibly useless while making use of my dirty joke skills, contributing my honest opinions only when the subject in hand is something I am invested in, which happens rarely.
My last words for you:
Chill, dude.
