There was always drama because that is a common trait of any community, it's not something that is new. If anything those effects have just been amplified because the community has increased in size as well, but the problems it faces are still the same. Mapping will always have kids and teenagers roleplaying as factions, countries or political entities and trying to become bigger or "more powerful" than the others because that's always been the essence of the Mapping community, either as the form of wiki factions, google+ communities or discord servers, even disputes between the audience of different channels have this sort of background.

It is normal to feel nostalgia for past times, but if you look back on it you will realize that there was always drama, infighting and controversies, we were all younger back then so that only makes sense. Would you still say the community was any different besides of the size and the people on it?
