Hard to explain, more of a feeling than an observation, I suppose.
I don't mean to troll at all.  Just wondering if I'm alone in feeling this.

Perhaps it's just the forums, but I feel like there's a lot of negative vibes coming from BTC right now. 
I've following Bitcoin and mining for a while but never bothered with forums until recently.  Is this common amongst forum-goers or is it really just Bitcoin in general?

well many thousands of users have lost bitcoin due to gox.. so their emotions are high. to add to that their coin was worth $1200 which if they sold to fiat would have been alot. but if gox was to suddenly admit they have the coins. peoples coins are worth half as much since the fiasco began.

then we can add other things to the pile.. and you will understand that some people emotions are being noticed more, and their professional writing patterns of last year, have changed.

i think wall street had similar emotional comments in 2007-2008.

The only thing I've noticed is an uptick in concern trolls recently.

What do you mean by toxic? The MtGox fiasco hit us pretty badly, so we're licking our wounds from that.
