The thing I will add is that this all goes in cycles. Over the past 2 years I have been on here there were times when certain chatters would dominate the room for a few months, espousing their stuff and flaring up at anyone with a different opinion. Then they would disappear for a while and the old standbys would re-appear and the funny banter would reappear. The RLC would do something to the Barcelona apartments, which are the usual area of controversy; I mean there are only 15+ other apartments, but Barca is like a lightening rod. The chat would be dominated again by a few ad nauseam for a while then the girls would change and they would disappear; and the old guys would come back again. It is like the weather, at least where I live; if you wait long enough it will change. Also, the old thought that if you hang onto your clothes long enough they will come back into fashion.
I guess my point is, if you are patient it will change. If you do not like it for a while, go post in the forums and only chat when your crowd is there. I have found that bitching to the chat about the discussions does no good at all and just turns them on you.
Peace and joy will reign supreme.
