For effectively rude and seriously offensive, you need a forum that is primarily an adult domain of 40 somethings with no connection to topics that are young people oriented.

The young don't have the required years and experience to be efficient fucking swine.

And you got that from someone that would know. Been there.

Just look for an adult forum devoted to military topics and politics and I can assure you it will make you disinterested in becoming an adult.
While not technically anime, currently I am a big fan of Hatsune Miku.
At least I can go see her in concert.

I'm really new here but I think the reason why everyone is friendly to each other here is because we are already in a niche group of people who like one thing. I have buddies in motorcycle groups that are friendly to other motorcyclists no matter how much they know them. It's common interest that builds our bonds, so essentially, we see each other as comrades in arms rather than some random person at the store/coffeeshop/bookstore/etc.
The chip in my mind, it summons me.
I gave my life to your machines.

I haven't seen anything bad yet either, although I haven't been here long enough.

Like someone said before, similar interests keeps people friendly. On a generic forum with all types of people you'd get trolls and arguments all the time. But I tend to only visit forums of hobbies and groups that I like....

i.e. This forum and the PS3 forums so everyone is friendly and kind

Here's an extract from Urban dictionary. Which has been strangely updated to remove one other paragraph about Xinil, just showing you his power. From what I can remember of it the paragraph was about how Xinil should resign and that he only liked positive feedback despite having a site with so many glitches.

Think of it as if Gaians finished college. Since they have a record of their anime stats, they use it to show off how big their e-penis is at any given moment. They look down on those who have seen significantly less anime than they have and render their opinions invalid, which may or may not already be invalid from the beginning. If you really want to fit in, just put Legend of the Galactic Heroes in your top 5 and have it be the only 10-rated anime in your list.

If you want to keep it friendly, stay out of the anime discussions. People get so passionate about anime that they forget how stupid they sound. If you say something bad about Legend of the Galactic Heroes or Naruto or Code Geass or anything popular, you'll get a series of followers and haters. Just try to keep a moderate attitude and don't let arguments escalate and you'll do great around here.

By the way, if you've only really posted around the introduction forum, everyone is so friendly because they copy and paste the same thing to every newcomer. Most people who hang around introductions just want to raise their post count. Or at least it used to be that way. Don't know if it's still like that.

Oh hey, it's like we're being shamelessly generalized!
I guess we deserve it for being part of a community.

I found the people around here to be pretty awesome in general. There's a single person I've come across in this site that I could classify as an asshole and I'm still pretty sure we just both had a bad day and made a bad first impression.

That's all surprisingly true.
Also, OP should have seen spam back before it was euthanized and recycled. So I guess things does seem friendlier overall now. That is, unless we find a plebeian with Bad Taste that gives LoGH a low rating, then it's torch and pitchfork time.

Naruto?? Surely you must be joking. You get flame if you don't say something bad about Naruto not if you say something bad.
That has gone full circle a lot time ago. Now is in fashion to hate it. We have a million people yelling "Narutards" on the Internet and no Narutards left.
Is like if you hate Naruto and Bleach you are cool.

Lol. I'm new too. I probably have no standing to say anything at all but it is really surprising. I expected to have a rough time here like on other sites but so far so good. ^^ Granted, I'm still fresh blood in the water but like so many have said, we all share the same taste in anime/manga.
