I wish this was on otf. I completely agree with you. Back in ye olden days of Forums this was a safe fun community where we could communicate in peace. Now we are all mindlessly bickering about absolutely nothing.
I hope your message gets across.

What forum were those in the golden days of yore? I recall relentless trolls, obscene gifs & even threats against my life. What we have now is mainly childish nonsense spam and bunch of immature teens who don't know how to behave in public. I wouldn't complain too much about the current state of things. This IS the toned-down forum environment.

I have the best idea! Anyone of us will talk to @CHESScom about giving a forum policy so that they will avoid bad messages. How about that?

This chess browser can be big in social, so we need to keep things in limits.

I’m new here, but I have been on multiple forums across dozens of forums and they all have one thing in common…too much anger, derision, untoward criticism, and some pure vulgarity. I am a retired Army vet with PTSD, so I know a good bit about anger, pride, and ethics. In 30 minutes of random scanning of forums on here, I found more bad than good. The primary cause is lack of stringent moderation. High participant counts make this extremely difficult…yes. Maybe one day this site will use AI to analyze forum users comments and block abusive users regardless of ranks and experience. The truly sad thing is that this is just a GAME.
