I suspect it’s just down to simple numbers.
I don’t think it is. I’ve been on a lot of large forums down the years, and yeah, some have their problems, but there’s a couple that stand out, and STW is one of them.
Every forum has it’s own culture. And the culture on here would seem to dictate that you must chastise others for not being as good as you at something. So if you’re a little less intelligent, less articulate, not quite so fast down the trail, not quite so fast up the trail, or if it takes you longer than 5 minutes to bleed your brakes….then you’re fair game.
I’d call it bullying.
Which is a shame, because there are a lot of intelligent and well educated users on here, and it’s all too often used to massage egos at the expense of others.
