While not naming any specific sites, I would be interested in hearing the
Community’s thoughts on whether you think it right or wrong for one AFOL
site to talk about another AFOL site. For purposes of this discussion, we
will assume that by talk I mean badmouth.

I’m not sure that the sites that prompted your ponderings are really AFOL
sites. Not a a critism of them, merely a thought that the standards of
maturity might not be what you would like to get from an AFOL site

Actually, I’ve found the behavior of some people on “adult” LEGO sites (like
Lugnet) to be less mature than the norm on kid-oriented LEGO sites (like
BZPower). There have been incidents and member actions on Lugnet that I
wouldn’t tolerate on BZP.
The standards for maturity don’t always seem to apply to Lugnet.

It is has been my experience that maturity and age (being an adult) have nothing
to do with each-other. Of course, what defines “maturity” is also widely
varied, some taking it to be politeness even in the face of rudeness, and others
take it to being self-confident enough to simply ignore rudeness.
But we are dealing with people, and people
are known to fight from time to time,
regardless of whether the fight is for a good reason or not.
