I just started coming to the main forum and there are wonderful people here and great information. It should be a great place for newbies and veterans to gather together.
There is a reputation for inappropriate posts here--some call it bullying, for example.
Let's all report inappropriate posts with the report button under the post. After you click it, you need to say what was inappropriate about it. If you can easily explain that, maybe you just don't get along with the poster and should block them or just ignore what they write.

I do report spam when I see it. Other stuff I try to read with an open mind.

Sometimes it's foaming-at-the-mouth crazy.

Sometimes it's entertaining.

Even if I interpret it as mean spirited, it can't hurt me.

Spam sure is annoying. Luckily these forums seem pretty clean of spam.
What do you suppose that little emoticon is eating--peanuts? I think I'll have some.

I think they're stimulants.

The forum managers I am sure read every post- I hope they do. But maybe enough people reporting inappropriate posts....

I really doubt the forum moderators read every post. I think that it is up to us to help them out when stuff is clearly wrong.
Of course, I don't mean we should report differences of opinion or just a curt reply.
