imo a lot less people take FW seriously than other online games

You’ll see the occasional overblown complaint about balances or features but on the whole this is a much tamer community than a lot of other games. This may be partly due to the lack of competitive aspects, but a lot less people **** about gameplay here than anything else I’ve played online.

You have a point but the issue traces to human nature in general more than anything else – nothing about FWZ in particular makes it that much more addictive, other than maybe flamebate. I don’t open my mouth that much on flamebate, though I do lurk more than I should.
