An appeal for sanity

I am new here, so someone will probably tell me to shut up.Before joining this forum, I lurked for a while, liked what I saw, so I joined in.
Phuket Info was the name of the forum!!!
I used to enjoy just reading through comments,jokes etc.However, in the last month or so it seems to me that almost any thread is hijacked with nasty, evil bad mouthed infighting between board members who use the forum to settle some form of argument or one upmanship.I am not going to agree or disagree with any of these arguments. It does not make pleasant reading.
God forbid anyone who takes a moral stance or voices an opinion that is not the norm. They risk being totally flamed. No I am not talking about giving sound advice or taking up an opposite stance.No its the level that some people want to drag the arguments down to.
A healthy argument is good, everyone is entitled to their opinion but why take it so far. I assume everyone who contributes is a normal intelligent person but most of the flamining that goes on is almost at schoolboy level with an endless tirad of swearwords and personal insults.
If this carries on maybe the forum name should change from Phuket info to Phuketflame.
Sorry guys but the bad posts seem to colour the whole forum.
Maybe, because I a new here I should sit back and say nothing, then I will not get flamed but how many other lurkers are reluctant to post because of what they read what happens if they do say something contraversial(i know thats spelt wrong).
