This is why I use Grammarly to check my posts.

I used to have that, but it got annoying. I just spellcheck them myself, because 99% of the time if i've misspelled something it's because I slipped on the keyboard, and I usually know the correct spelling.

GameFAQs, i remember not being taken seriously and belitled because i was new there for quite some time.

I would really like to join this community but i need to know.

Is it toxic towards newcomers?

Thanks for your replies.

I've had someone call me a "retard" in a thread. 

I've had someone say I was wrong about 2560x1440 being 2.5k. They were friendly about it afterwards. 

 

Really no problems for the most part then general people getting upset or having an ego issue I'd say. I've been here since February.

In my experience this has been one of the more friendlier forums. Of course there are some 'bad example's people/threads, but that happens on any forum.

 

Compared to what I hear from other places, the moderators here are fairly objective too.

 No murcy for the weak I say.. 

 

I'd honestly be more of a dick if the community didn't adhere to that "don't be a dick" policy.

 

It's the internet, don't take it serious.

Apart from some twats (they are always there, including this forum) it's a friendly place.

There are some heated arguments, but they are rare and usually the mods step in if required.

Also mods sometimes post in regular topics from time to time which is nice.

 

If you get in a heated argument, the mods will usually call you out in a post so if you go over the line, other people will know.

If you want my attention, quote meh! D: or just stick an @samcool55 in your post :3

Lemme guess, trolling? Figures

He didn't typically troll, was just a hard-headed douche who thought he was the smartest person on the forums.
