I remember this era (around 2016/2018) as probably the worst of DXP.

There was a lot happening, hundreds of posts per day, , but everybody was at each others' throat, everybody was in cliques and everywhere you turned there were people hostile to each other.

I remember endless threads about criticizing other DXPers.

When I arrived a few years prior to this era, it was slower but more civil and less like a social media where people just came to fight with others

I remember dxp was nothing but a relationship website. It wasn't until I arrive that's when things started heating up.

I'm not sold on that last part. I remember that horror show of DXP awards circs 2015. Robyn fortunately salvaged it.

But, to your point, there was a common element during that time that appears to no longer be present. And the lack of drama (mostly) is a good thing.
