I called him out on his error, and he flew into a rage, insisting that I am "pretty fucking dumb" and that he was right. I posted links showing he was wrong & challenged him to prove himself right. Hours later I got a couple PMs from him alluding to the idea that he *might* have been mistaken. Kid couldn't even post he was wrong publicly. The whole discussion was emblematic of what's going on with these uneducated millenials and their gleeful hubris.
So old much wisdom

I don't bother pointing out the flaws or giving suggestion about this website anymore.
When I point out a problem, it never gets fixed, when I give suggestions, they never get put in application.
Im done wasting my time trying to make this website better.

Best thing: the community. It has it's own culture and style, and that culture and style is very unique and cohesive. You don't see such a fully developed elaborate culture on other boards this size. When most boards grow to this size, it's just a generic shitfest with no culture or style. We have culture, style, and a great sense of community. I'd like to think that the reason we're different is because of psychedelics.
Worst thing: All the negativity in its various forms. Trolls are funny once, but when you've been doing the same troll for years it gets old and it sucks. People (including myself) who are just angry and critical about everything all the time. Assholes, know it alls, people who are just ready and waiting to tear others down, etc. There's a huge amount of negativity, arguing, insulting, even over really basic things. People even tear each other apart over opinions on things that don't even fucking matter.

Ive been reading these forums for years before just now registering a few days ago

I agree with a lot of what you said, but i also think that some of the 'negativity' is well placed and necessary, especially since there are people who are stuck in detrimental mind sets, often due to their own ego. See JustForToday for clear examples of ego and how this community treats these kinds of patterns of behavior and thoughts.
Personally i wouldn't want to come to a place that is 100% nice and positive, there has to be a balance. It's really lame when people are super nice to your face but won't express how they truly feel about you or an idea.
