    Why is this forum so good?

    Guys,

    I am not kidding. The quality of the posts seem very high on this forum. I have yet to be overtly insulted, told that my gun is crap but brand X is awesome, etc. Is there something in the water here?

    This forum is a good one because:

    • There is no (or very little) immature bickering.
    • As you stated, there is no being told "your gun is crap," while any critisism is both constructive and professional.
    • Based on the above two, any information provided via here (the "errornet") you are less likely to need to take it wish such a big grain of salt as seen elsewhere.

    Because the general discussion section gets little to no use.

    Off-topic chatter is the downfall of any enthusiast's internet forum.

    That happens every day here. You should read the board more often. There are a lot of people here who belive perfect is better than good enough. YMMV

    I would say it is due to the proactive moderators who are not afraid to swat stupid posts or ban people who are trolling.

    The lowest common denominator user is higher.

    The moderators actually moderate, and aren't MINOs (Moderator In Name Only).

    Signal:Noise is excellent as a result.

    Ditto.

    The average IQ is higher here?

    No, seriously, I think the average member is here for honest technical discussion and seeks their frivolous entertainment elsewhere. Additionally, the forum is loosely moderated and open enough that it's not a circle jerk private club, but many people have or will meet face to face through various functions or training classes.

    Well, here here for the forum and its members. Let's keep it this way.
    Let those who are fond of blaming and finding fault, while they sit safely at home, ask, ‘Why did you not do thus and so?’I wish they were on this voyage; I well believe that another voyage of a different kind awaits them.”
