I think that lately it's been pretty mild around here. There was a time where flaming and arguing seemed to occur much more frequently, particularly when new members would ask about stuff that had been covered many time previously. I think that the past 'rowdiness' is one reason that we have several admins and mods now, I think we only had two or three for a time.

There will still be flames and arguments, but they either get shut down quick or they die out on their own. The atmosphere here is pretty good these days, IMO.
