The boards aren't all scary, as long as you know where to avoid. XD

If you find the right place to go on the neoboards, it's not a bad place at all. Most of the board topics in general are horrid.... but there are mostly safe zones in Games, Help, any of the premium boards, and often AC/BD/plot boards.
Help scares me a little. But I'd like to put in a good word for the games board as well because it's the only neoboard I frequent. It's generally always on topic, though there's the occasional ignored spam, and quite helpful. The only thing I'd like to warn about is that it is a slow moving board, and I've noticed that people who are used to the fast paced other boards tend to think they are being ignored when they aren't.
The BC board is fairly on topic as well. When I was trying to get votes the one time I entered, I found the board friendly and spam didn't seem well tolerated there either.
