[quote=Anonymous]Although there are definitely a few bad eggs, I do think a lot of the nastiness is a direct response to some of the outlandish boosterism on this board. If the outlandish boosterism were to go, I think it would become a whole lot less toxic. For example, a couple of months ago, there was a very long thread instigated by a parent or alum from X school loudly trying to convince everyone that their school was elite/prestigious/etc., going so far as to insult other schools in an attempt to boost their own. This obviously resulted in many pages and pages of back and forth. It's this kind of behavior that results in animus.[/quote]
