It depends on what you want the atmosphere to be like. On some forums, it's like there is race between members after a Noob posts his first post, about who's gonna make the quickest and best sarcastic reply.

Then you get quotes, replies to quotes, GIF's, MEMES etc, it's like a war. I see very little of that here. It can be funny once in a while to see funny posts after the ''where can I find the best 1:1 sub" but I get bored quickly when it never gets serious afterwards.

On place like RG there's always a member that replies nicely, even to a question that's been asked a thousand times.

being a noob is not easy
I am just seconding the post above. I am a bit of a refugee from another Rep Board where the environment got a bit to caustic for me. Sure, there is less activity on this forum; but compared forums that taxed my patience, this is a good tradeoff.

Yes, I learned more on the other forum; but it wasn't worth it to me. The only reason I ever even check that forum anymore is to see if I have any messages; I have found that even that is getting less frequent.
