Yep. and it's mostly because people don't know how to moderate them anymore. force things too much, due to the extreme nastiness of some people, and you loose folks. Force things too little, and things get heated and out of control rather fast due to over emotional people who like to cause trouble.
Message boards where much more fun not even more than 6 years ago.
it's really rather sad.
And Facebook pages are LONG ago a lost cause. they make message boards look like a safe haven.

Ignoring only goes so far.
Once people you ignore realize you have them on ignore, they odly still try to engage you and the cycle continues. you see those quoted posts and feel the need to respond after a while and..ugh.
