Life is all about the upgrades..., geez just look at how many options are out there now when you want to buy something as simple as a TOASTER. The term SIMPLE no longer exists 
UPGRADES, UPGRADES
On whole things are pretty good at Motifator. There have been some issues in the past where a few members (FoleyCore) were constantly causing problems. Funny thing was that Yamaha showed their sense of humor in one of their videos too. Foley was trash talking the XS line about synth features.., and in one of their videos they in a nice way debunked the guys claim by giving him (their version) of a middle finger. The debunked his claim.., and the patch used for the video was CLEARLY titled FOLEY
I frequent several sites myself.., and I've noticed they bicker just as much as we do. Moderators on some of the other forums though are "trigger happy" though. Nigel is good here and knows when someone has gone too far.., and doesn't pull the trigger too early I guess the biggest difference is some forums are informational and others are community oriented. There is more bickering in the communities because people tend to visit them without a specific purpose or question. more for entertainment and camaraderie.
Informational forums need trigger happy moderators to keep on message,dispense informational solutions and move on. Model Specific forum Threads aren't bogged down with "opinion" or hyperbole. They are instead filled with "solutions to problems.
Yeah, Sometimes the recipients don't LIKE the solution or just want to bash the product. There is the great "ignore" feature where the user can eliminate any posts from those not helping to find solutions. Something that would not work well in a community forum that thrives and survives on opinion and pissing contests,
