There are occasional spats and pissing contests that break out just like everywhere else, and when I first joined a few years ago I let myself get pulled into a few. But like everything else on the internet, you are not going to "win" an argument no matter how irrefutable you think your points. So now I steer clear of all that and just try to learn more about cards and memorabilia. That doesn't mean I won't express an opinion however.
There are some folks here unfailingly negative about every aspect of the hobby. If I felt that way I'd find a new hobby. Life's too short.

I'm definitely learning a lot from just browsing through the forums. And yes arguments will probably occur on any forum. I think there are going to be people who are negative about any hobby they get involved in. I try not to dwell on it either. Nothing but positive experiences here so far though so fingers crossed!
