So there is or isn't an issue with scaring off newcomers? Because I've gotten comments about posters being too intimidated to participate in various sports threads in the past.

The only people who get chased off are the people who come in and start throwing slurs around or just go off the deep end with the insults. Several of the top posters by pure volume of posts only started here in the last year or so.

Finally, an actual helpful answer. Thanks.
 
I feel like I'm the most behaved NHLGAF member

Given you were banned before the end of the season, that's a claim that falls a bit short. If anything, I have more right to call myself the most behaved NHLGAF member since I have not been banned during my time here. Ditto for anyone else here in the same boat as me.

I gave you an actual helpful answer...

Considering I still was left wondering if there were still issues with Kings fans in particular, it wasn't completely helpful.

Geez, you guys give all mods this much sass to simple questions?

You aren't a real member of GAF until you get banned at least once.
 
I almost killed NHLGAF, would have been HaloGAF all over again.
Are you saying the community is a bit...insular?

Bish, what kind of operation you running man!

No, people are welcoming for the most part. Come playoff time people get shit for hopping on the bandwagon, but that's an innate quality of sports talk. Some people are only interested in sports during the playoffs, so that's probably why people stop posting.

It's probably a good thing no Canadian teams are in the playoffs right now

We're especially lucky there's no Vancouver/Flames series.
