While the OP could have said that much more intelligently, he's right. I've been reading this forum for a few years, not really posting too much but I know what's up for the most part. I was actually considering making a post myself, but know it would be pointless. It just seems that around 80% of new posts get at least one, if not more, rude and insulting replies for no real reason. Sure, some people are dumb asses and deserve to be called out on it, but even the good posts get that shit too... and it wasn't like that at first. What happened to all the cool, chill, respectful people around here? Everyone is so quick to jump on someone for any reason... i just don't get it. Not really a reason to leave the forum, just saying i don't know what happened, but it sure isn't like it used to be.

I've been here for seven years and the only profound change I've noticed is the kinds of threads I'm attracted to. I used to indulge in cynical and inane posts, I actually enjoyed it. Now my values have changed and it does nothing for me.

It's all attitude. Ignore posts you don't like. It's really easy, if you actually want to. Many would prefer to criticize other users or the Shroomery itself than be a grown up and just move on to the next post.

There are plenty of respectful people here, more than ever. Perhaps you have grown some and you no longer identify with the 19-20 year old crowd. It's the same for everybody; as you age, there are more and more users who are less mature than you.

there are actually nine circles that make up the shroomery. almost anyone is allowed, and in fact is encouraged to come into the outer circle. many people think that this is all there is. no one really finds out about the inner circles until someone from inside sees what they are looking for in a "shroomerite" and contacts them. even then, when someone passes from the 9th to the 8th circle, they are told nothing else. they think that they have reached THE inner circle. the population of each circle decreases as you move inward, until you reach Ythan, who is indeed a key player in the illuminati.

this may explain the apparent lack of quality posting on this site.

OP: You are attracted to the posts that drag down your perceived image of this site because you see your shadow aspects in them. Shadow aspects are human traits that you deny existing within yourself. But everybody has the potential, and more than likely you have (in the past) embodied the actual attitudes you are singling out. This leads to the ultimate form of judgemental hatred--one that stems from an inability to accept one's own history.
