I can comment (as a quasi outsider) as a silent fellow reader over the years, that in my estimation the mood here has become more and more negative peu à peu over the last years/months. And the downward spiral has not yet stopped. The quota of always bad-tempered, dissatisfied, fun-free users, who feel permanently disadvantaged and cheated, is permanently increasing. I don't know of any forum that is as gloomy in mood as this one. Even with the depressives it is funnier from the basic mood

btw: Unlike you, I therefore find that the forum's own clumsy fun battalion, consisting of the usual suspects, has a greater raison d'être.

The mood is like that in every player forum, at least in the better known ones.
You only have to read through the Askgamblers or Casinomeister forums.

And that's not surprising either. It's all about gambling and thus losing.
If then of course numerous users who complain are told that they are too stupid to gamble, don't understand how machines work, are "soft in the head", and if it is permanently insisted that skeptical gamblers are nothing but conspiracy theorists, this increases the negative mood.
It is common practice in player forums that some people constantly blame those who lose and make them out to be failures.
Happens often enough here as well.
Why should this promote the mood?

Here are a few enlightening details on what sexual harassment means. The topic is also anything but funny:

Sexual harassment is a criminal offense and, among other things, a means of exercising power , in which power imbalances or dependency relationships are one-sidedly sexualized and thus maintained.[sup] [2] [/sup][sup] [3] [/sup][sup] [email protected]

In terms of content, sexual harassment is concrete, sexual specific behavior , which is unwanted and by which a person feels uncomfortable and violated in their dignity .[sup] [9] [/sup] Sexual harassment includes sexualizing remarks and actions that are degrading or embarrassingxml-ph-1533@ Men and women largely agree on the distinction between appropriate erotic advances (flirting) and sexual harassment.[sup] [9] [/sup]

Well, certainly virtually. Sexualizing remarks that (should) have a shaming effect very often take place virtually.
I had thought that the topic would be through here by now.
But since OpaOma came back to it and it is important to defend yourself immediately against such harassment - especially since sometimes the other person does not realize what he / she is doing - and you obviously make fun of it, a little information should clarify it.

In the end, however, it no longer fits into this topic.

Ah well, thanks for the "insinuation". Since it is actually a typical feature of forums I don't understand why such a discussion has to arise here. So I can't follow it, unfortunately. Too bad. I'm just a "UmDieEckeDenker". I also have all my scripts written by a Ghostscripter. But psssst.

Is relative. Unless it is spam & co. (e.g. N**i slogans), but such messages as "A writes offtopic" or "B is nasty to C" or "D has written A*RSCH and not LONGER BACK, find I 4 messages per day much. I wouldn't even come up with that many per year.

It concerns also not only the messages mentioned by you. And if times such are present, one can work them off relatively fast. But it's worse when a few users don't want to understand that and rob us of a lot of our working time via Communicator. Of course, this time is then missing in other places, where it is needed more urgently.

True, it's going down. I think it's a shame too. Especially I as a newbie totally like to read any info about individual games.

I basically have nothing at all against funny interjections and a few jokes/insider/running gags. Pretty much every active forum lives from that. But if it becomes too off-topic over pages, it hurts the clarity. I personally don't have the time to read every topic, especially because of the long posts of some users. Since I find it a pity that in between even whole pages full of completely off-topic contributions to skip. For this there is an off topic area, this could (and should) be used quiet more

It is clear that in a gamers forum there is often a lot of frustration due to losses in the game. But the other side is that playing is fun. Basically, no one will deny that. If you can't talk about the fun of the game here at all, then where can you talk about it? Because about the frustration of the game you can exchange in umpteen forums. There are some forums on the subject of gambling, where you can even exchange information only about your addiction and the resulting problems. And for the most part, they run more peacefully than this one

In the addiction forums there are also more users who agree with each other.
Maybe the rules are stricter there.
Many users certainly come here because the team works closer to the source. It is also one of the best known.

If the skeptical players, the ones who complain, weren't always run into the ground by a few, things would be more peaceful here, too. And perhaps also funnier.
Just the other day another user was put down because he had a question. It wasn't even an assertion, just a question. And he was again called a conspiracy theorist and ridiculed.
Since one does not have to be surprised about bad mood actually.

Yes, in Gambling addiction forums is more harshly penetrated, there is accepted namely only the one side of the opinion, which is perfectly okay and right there. Here, both sides are accepted which is also good and right

Of course, you can also see your argument the other way around: If the skeptical players would not always attack those who just enjoy the game and try to impose their personal situation on everyone, it would be more peaceful here. Not every assumption is a stupid conspiracy theory, see Random's BtG - cheating thread for example. There is normal discussion, trying to stick to facts and theories that are somehow plausible.

On the other hand there are just more and more completely hollow threads like: Does one win less with PSC Deposit?

Or threads that actually no longer contain any arguments but only talk about a huge scam. Here, as I said, both opinions are accepted, but a large part of the skeptic faction does not accept that. If absolutely crazy arguments are brought forward, it is still allowed to refute or discuss them

By the way, there are much more skeptics than convinced fun-players here in the forum. If at all, both sides put each other down and not only one side the other
