I agree with the OP that the general tone of the forum has taken a "less positive" turn of late, but that said, this is still one of the nicest places on the web.

Let's not be too precious, but at the same time let's be supportive, inclusive, polite, AND FUN. We're here because we ENJOY traditional and modern kilts, let's not split and divide, let's unite around our shared appreciation.

Kilt on, and be excellent to each other.
