My anecdotal experience would be the accidental forum rule breaking in my Case it was a quip with regards to how the Wii was named piss who would of thought that would catch on or something to that effect (I still find it hard to believe a system could be named Wii even today, it must be the kid in me). I never realised this would be taken wrongly which it was. I think that post may of been part cultural and part forum newbie. This was only a minor infraction and resulted in a warning. Also bizzare really as I rarely post anything on the Wii.
The other thing I noticed is when you are a newbie and say something it gets ignored somebody else says the same thing and it does not, you feel less valued. Of course this is natural as opinion is still mostly unknown. That would probably be the single most obvious example to me of a newbie. I would not say that I have been abused. I like most people here have a leaning to one system over another but that is not unusual and is the basis for most discussion posts and I try to balance my response and think from the others perspective it sometime helps but not always.
The most obvious and I am loathe to call it a problem I see with the forum is that PS3 owners seem to outnumber all other forum members combined. This often leads to the 360 post being overwhelmed with trollish like posts. I say loathe because this is possibly entirely a perspective thing and a PS3 owner may well say the same thing about the 360 owners.
