From the little I have experianced of FABO, I'd say this forum is better than the majority I have seen.
I'm a moderator on another forum. We are pretty strict. If someone has an attitude, but contributes, we let it slide unless it gets out of hand. But if they have nothing to contribute, and are just there to throw their weight around, BANNED for life. I deal with enough jerks (I live in CT) in real life. I don't need that crap when I'm recreating.
