I've become more radical in my opinions and becoming this radical is the reason why I admit it. After all, it's what people who drift towards an extreme usually do.
Seriously though, forums are merely a catalyst. They can bring out the worst of people and suck them into a hivemind, but whether or not that happens and remains a continual state of mind depends on the individual. How much of a breeding ground for extreme opinions any given forum is depends on how it is moderated. In the specific case of VGC, there are much more people who mellowed down over the years rather than doubled down on their initial beliefs.
My biggest belief is that a stupid person should be called an idiot. That's why I have done it twice in the last 24 hours.

If it was on VGChartz, I hope you were modded for that.

It's all about how you use the word and whom against you use it. Circumstances and context are key. Intent is the largest factor

Unless it's in a joking manner, calling someone an idiot is flaming.
