We can all be better posters, better people, on here if we choose to be.
As @Comrade 86put it earlier - be more B4.

Not really if I'm honest with you, this forum without the members is an empty shell of code, it's the members that make the forum a community.
It's really on you all to shape the community with how you communicate with each other.
We can set guidelines, moderate content, even disable polls to avoid the in out after every result, however unless we go all North Korea it really is on you all.
The forum has topic summaries now below the first post, maybe check that and try to voice your opinion without being in the top 4 posters for a prolonged period?
I haven't been on nowhere near as much myself,  life offline is pretty hectic, then the spare time I get, do I want to spend that filling my head with the constant streams of negativity over matters that seem so minor compared to last year.
Thought we would have had more of grace period of just being happy to have a club to support, wasn't expecting the bile to be spewed so quickly but here we are, and that's the frontline where the fight is being fought.

I wish this forum had a ‘you’re tedious’ button. I agree with the OP, I usually pop in and quickly out again as the thread I’m interested in has descended into a boring playground spat 

I think utilising the ignore button may save someone's sanity. If a poster regularly annoys you, put them on ignore.
Though sadly, some bugger will quote them and then you froth at the mouth again.
 

Couldn't resist could you....pretty ironic in a thread about tiresome oneupmanship don't you think?
Why don't you offer the OP some constructive advice instead?
Shouldn't have really expected anything less.

Which is why I distanced myself from coming on here so is sound advice. 

I feel your pain. The only thing I would say is if you disappear I will really miss your player ratings which are always quality and well observed. I too have had spats with posters on here - it’s part of the territory - but I’ve learned to swerve getting into too heated a debate. I suppose we are all passionate about our Club hence things can get heated. I think the watchword now is for everybody to be more @B4ev6is #BmoreB4. Maybe, take a short break from the Forum and come back re-energised but don’t leave altogether. As for relying on Derby Telegraph site, crikey its Uber click-bait. 
 

I'm a reasonably diplomatic, boring, steady middle aged bloke.
I'm reasonably well educated and can write reasonably well so try to choose words on this forum that express an opinion that may be different to others, without deliberately causing offence. I certainly don't have 'poor writing' or 'poor vocabulary' as anything like an excuse if I were to cause offence.........but, without being patronising, I do understand not all so-called offensive posts are intended to be offensive.
However, it's apparent that I'm not alone in finding it tiresome that almost every single thread deteriorates into a game of point scoring, oneupmanship and, increasingly, forum archeology, in order to be unpleasant to one another.
There seems to be, in equal measure, deliberate attempts to cause offence and seek offence and it's just not great reading. I'm not in the slightest bit supportive of closing down debates or censoring differences of opinion but the number of personal spats with unpleasant language is getting beyond a joke.
I can't blame the mods because, individually, most of these posts fall below the threshold of complaint but, collectively, they make this forum so much worse than it could be.
I came to this forum for camaraderie when we nearly went under as a club - and it was a source of great comfort, information and humour.
It's got to the point where I'm considering signing off and and using the Telegraph and Radio Derby as my main non-matchday links - they have limitations but they are civil.
Any ideas what we can do?

What was it you said about my original post ? Dear me. Hello Pot.
evidence of what exactly ? That I disagree with you and challenge your opinion ? 
 
You seem very good at doling it out but then get all pouty 

Couldn't agree more YR.
I actually think many of them are disappointed the results have picked up as now they have no reason to want the man out. It's pathetic; but also quite funny.

Only recently you wrote "The only way Warne even begins to be a success as the manager or Head Coach of Derby County is if he secures us a promotion"
Thats all he can achieve at the moment, anything else is an unfair KPI to level at him given he isn't even in that position. 
 
If as you said he gets promoted this season, he is successful in his job to date, you can only take one step at a time.

Come on @May Contain Nuts 

As @sage would say show me the latest polling numbers from all Derby fans with the breakdown of how many expect promotion this season as a minimum.
I've always said that a finish outside of the Top 6 would be a failure as have other forum members but then you tout your own opinion as fact by saying that the jury remains out and Warne will only have done well if he gets us promoted and keeps us up - again point me to the poll of Derby fans making this statement?
The back and forth will only settle down as you state when posts like these disappear from the forum, simple as, and it's the main reason I've been absent from here for so long.
