I wouldn't say that it has gotten that bad. I get annoyed when any sort of opinion is taken on as truth, so it can be safe to say that I am annoyed all of the time :D

There have just recently been a few people trying to stir up trouble, which I ignore and just go about my business.

I was actually trying to straight up manually count them on the member list but there you go I guess. I found 50 that start with "retro", I guess the other 9 just have "retro" elsewhere in the name.

Either that or my counting is way off.

Which may i say was blown out of proportion.
It took you five posts to even acknowledge that you shouldn't have called her a bitch, and even then it was an offhand "I overreacted, but she still sucked" rather than a real apology for your poor word choice. If your first post in response to people jumping on you was "You guys are right, it was unfair to call her that. I was frustrated that she didn't have the knowledge I would expect her to have, but that doesn't excuse my language," then this would have disappeared 5 pages ago.

That leaves off the 3 who have "retro" in the middle of their names.

I have no issues with you. Just stating I don't like the use of that word the way you used it. If you said "She didn't know about the Gameboy, well sonovabitch" I'd be right there with you. But calling her a bitch simply isn't something a mature person would say.
