You know, I don't think people here really have that long Memories. There has been some trolling, and outside of the "lower forums" too.
Nothing too unreasonable, but it was there.
There's also been moans about how new people ruining the community a year or so ago, so everyone with join dates in 2009, you ruined the community!

Hostility of forums is always a matter of perspective and numbers of new people who are treated with respect versus how many are trolled right away.
"OMG POAR MAGMA ON IT!!!" is a good way to encourage the growth of negativity, since it isn't helpful to new people. Then again, people who post replies to that of "You are stupid", no matter how polite, gives the OP a justification for hostility.

You make the community the place it is. Every single individual who takes part in it. If you like your current community, pat yourself on the back. If not, look in the mirror and GTFO.

Is it so much nicer here? Depends on your perspective. To some people, no.
