Thank you for both of your replies, Document. :) At least three people in this thread are being nice. That includes Lia as she was just reminding me of what Alex said back then, which is a fair point; nothing malicious intended.
I've sometimes compared Marathon's more toxic community members to that of the Sonic fanbase, being a fan of Sonic myself so I recognise the similarities in places. Like with Sonic, there are at least a lot of good eggs as well, even if some get scared off the Pfhorums by the gatekeepers like I read about in an ancient thread there.
