Nope, I just don't want the place overrun by people who are mostly just around to flame and insult.

Pick up moderating a few large subreddits and you'll see what I mean. Even on a small sub like /r/Infiniti, I've seen a massive increase in people just being pricks, especially after a cross post. Smaller user base makes it less likely.

Like I said in another post, I don't like using the word normie because it's not actually descriptive of the behavior I'm talking about, but it's the word the thread is using.

Be the change you want to see, I guess.
