Notice at all forums I do visit, a slightly move to a more toxic behavior. To keep the positive atmosphere, why not remove the negative reaction symbols you can publish at the bottom of a forum post. As symbols like poop or hilarious laughter smiley can result in aggression. I know forums that did delete all the negative symbols and use only the positive ones as one of the methods to keep the forum friendly.

Do you think we have a toxic atmosphere?

I don't see it.

Edit: After receiving hilarious laughter response from person who thinks hilarious laughter smiley causes aggression and wants it removed.

Sometimes there are indeed hateful replies here, that are luckily with the help of the "report button" been corrected by the moderator! Or people using the hilarious laughter smiley, not as a funny statement but pure as an sarcastic remark. Just like I did now to your posting as a sample.
Look I do not care if it goes wrong, because then I'm leaving, this only my suggestion to keep the GTpl forums clean from bad manners for the future.
 
I'd say removing a laughing smiley because it could be used sarcastically is over the top. Plus I think everyone should be prepared to endure a sarcastic smiley from time to time.

Don't want to judge if poop smileys are of help or not.
 
I never analyzed that. Sometimes i see posting where i totally understand the poop giving and then there are others...
