Welcome to the forum! I concur with your assessment. In general, I think we have a mature and professional group here. I, too, have learned a great deal from the good folks here, which has greatly enhanced my game experience as well as advanced my knowledge of U-Boats.
I was a moderator on a RPG site for a while. The politics, arrogance, and pettiness I experienced had such a profound effect upon me that I stopped playing the game entirely almost three years ago.
The subsim group, relative to my past experiences, is like a breath of fresh air.
Oh, and you may periodically hear rumors about a supermod called "GWX". I think it's a long-standing hoax, as I haven't seen anything other than a monstrous carrot on a stick.
