I happened to came across this thread. Now I have the answer.
I'm very new to TT and have been playing for about 3 months. My main toon has just gone above the 80 laff level. But I was turned away in front of a 5 lvl bldg in DDL by two other 100+ toons. I have also noticed way much more abusive use of the "you stink" phrase. Many times in DDL, I see a fight between toons. The atmosphere and attitude in DDL are very different compare to the previous playgrounds. After reading this thread, I know why now.
