PM me if interested. The goal is to create an environment for mature discussion which, unfortunately, lacks on here most of the time. If you can handle differing opinions without resorting to internet bullying, personal attacks, or snide remarks, let me know if you'd like to join or help create a private community for MLB The Show discussion.
Good luck with that, the anonymity of the internet forum is like courage in a bottle. People act differently than they would in a face to face conversation

go to operation sports. Very measured conversation. Infrastructure and users already there. Just not a ton of activity for Diamond Dynasty.
-
May I also add, any adult/mature players want to make a HOF custom league?
-
that sounds interesting -

An entire generation got away with being able to say anything they want to anyone they want without getting punched in the mouth, and it shows.

I have said it once, and I will say it again. The majority of the really toxic people on this forum are in their 30s. There is a “what is your age?” Thread about once a year and there are very few regular posters here that are under 25. It really makes it more sad than it already is
-
Use what you have

I was about to say the same. The nimrods we see are usually older and feel entitled to something

We've got exactly this environment in our discord server. I think there are around 70 people in there as of this post. Many of whom feel like many here do about the forums becoming increasingly toxic. Good discussion, respectful debates, and both mature and immature humor. Ages range from 17 to 49. We also run leagues there too.
-
I think we need an "Official Offline Lounge" thread. Mostly older, kinder geezers play offline and I've noticed over the years these people are less toxic and just enjoy the game of baseball without the petty behavior that plagues any and all online competitive atmospheres.

I would totally be part of that forum. Also I would love a custom league but would rather it at all star if anyone has interest.
39 year old here.

This is where the problem is tho, everyone thinks they are part of the good guys and that people agree with/like them. Its like the Burger Bob episode of Bob's Burgers with the forums where he thought everyone liked him until he met them. The civility might last longer but all forums eventually descend into madness

You're probably right but the amount of unwarranted comments and trolling is tough to take on this forum.

yah it's rough, I find myself engaging more than I would like to admit but I usually like to think I'm not a total [censored]. The worst are when people are just asking an honest question or comment something nice about things and they get burned for no reason.

The problem is I think a lot of those honest questions are kids just looking for replies and are trying to get people pissed off. I just love this game and my wife could literally care less.
