I wholeheartedly agree with Danny. The number ignorant or otherwise deliberately unpleasant comments and posters in the majority of gaming communities are what usually prevent me from commenting myself. It's a shame as I fall into the category described in this video: I'm a passionate gamer with very few real life friends who share my interest.
I would like to take a more active part in the gaming community, but I feel what could be such a great place with a wonderful atmosphere is held back by the trolls or unnecessarily insulting keyboard warriors.
It should be a pleasant experience to have a constructive or casual debate about different opinions, not an insult throwing competition. I for one would appreciate being able to have a discussion without it devolving into a pointless and moronic slagging match.
