Oh but I can't answer that question as stated because I can't answer it "regardless of forum." It depends a lot on the forum. Even here in ChristianChat, different subforums have very different cultures.
I usually stay in Singles and Misc. forums. The atmosphere there is cool, friends chit-chatting mostly.
Every time I poke my nose into Bible Discussion I see a LOT of bad vibes. Everybody there has to prove "I am right and you are wrong" and they sling a lot of insults in the pursuit of this goal. That's why I sedulously avoid that forum these days.
And I got news for you about them bad vibes: Some people don't thrive on them and want to avoid them. Bad vibes cause high blood pressure, loss of sleep and poor digestion. And the people who want to avoid them have mostly collected in Singles and Misc. forums.
So could y'all insulters/debaters please keep those bad vibes in the forums where the people who thrive on them hang out? Y'all been messing up this nice, peaceful, informative, cool forum too long already.

I'm not single but separated so singles forum is out. I'm not big on bible necessarily but I hang there to take on what makes people defend the bible without thinking. And too I have to admit, to see if they realize it looks really bad to defend being a Christian using language that would constitute a sin. There's an old Monty Python yarn in there somewhere if I look hard enough I just know it.
God love BBC America. They're rerunning the movies and the Flying Circus series.
