TMO is still a friendly place in my opinion and most people will get along fine with other members. Also, most will help if you ask nicely. Like Stickymick said, it's a matter of forum etiquette. It just so happens that some people are unfamiliar with the concept in the first place.
After reading the "circus" it felt as if a hoard of rude teens had barged their way in. A reassuring sense of anonymity made them feel they could just spout rudeness and not have to deal with the repercussions.

The fact is, this is a great forum, with some REALLY great people in it who are patient, helpful, and jolly good fun. Maybe once these new kids realize that this isn't like those Android forums (that they just came from) where people appear for a couple of idiotic posts then disappear forever - only popping up again with a new username - they will appreciate the deep commitment and love for TMO the seasoned users have and may even reap the benefits of those users' helpful insight.
That's the worst sentence I've ever written, but I'm hungover and I know you get my drift.

Be nice. Get help. People here are awesome. Coffee.
