This board has really changed from what it was even a couple of years ago.

There should be no problem with healthy skepticism. How would you expect a community to react when they've been lied to, and worse, where a member tries to take advantage of a) military service and b) terminal illness?
This isn't about the board changing. Not being gullible is a change for the better. If more people would gut-check and be skeptical of posts in the first place, a lot less BS would flourish here.
That's not to say we have to get mean and lynch mob about it. But you can't expect the community to just be happy fluffy bunnies when it comes to this crap.
