As the site got bigger, there were more interesting conversations and threads, but it also gave way to more drama and more of the "let's all just get along and hold hands" stuff that you're talking about. Maybe it's just me, but it doesn't seem like all that new of an issue.

I don't care about all getting along in the sense of actually agreeing, and I'm as guilty of being a jerk in the political threads as anyone (maybe in other threads as well).
But I have always questioned completely going off on people in the recruitment sections where I feel like there's a legitimate reason to consciously think about making Greek life look bad. It's the one area about which people, I think, have an acceptable reason to be completely clueless.
I know I've flipped out on people too and that some people get under your skin and are doing it deliberately. But I'm not sure that asking for politeness in some areas is a bad thing.
