Yup. Same here.
While I do understand and sometimes share the sentiment of
@Jew D. Boy, it can get ugly and tedious at times, the arena is basically what the forum is made for. Take out the Arena and this forum will lose most of its activity. Like it or not, the fandom is mostly interested in power level talks, and of course we all have our biases at times, so differing opinions and conflict arise from there. Now that conflict should be solved in a better way, not just shit talking each other, but maybe that's what we can work on.
To be honest, I find the spoiler threads to be worse lmao. Every time I drop by there there's some talk about furry chicks, flat chested chicks, penises, etc. And that's actually visible to guests. In addition to that, there's also shit talking, bashing, baiting, et cetera, going on there. All of that plus the things I mentioned first make it worse in my opinion.
Summa summarum, the arena is the most active place and while I do understand that some people would like to avoid it, it is the backbone of the forum.
