Are FFF folks a calmer bunch?

So I was over at the O-Board a lot during this weekend (since I couldn't get through to FFF). I notice that about half the threads over there are dedicated to some form of hand-wringing over how much money the BDM is making and (related to that) whether or not there'll be a sequel.
But then FFF came back up and over here...none of that.
So here's my question: why are we not hyperventilating like they are?

We're Browncoats and we have faith and believe in holding a steady course when things get tough?

Haken has spoken! But what is their problem, then?

Two reasons:
1) We were up and down this weekend so people didn't post.
2) For me, it's done now. There's not much else I can do. I've seen the movie...multiple times. I've told all I can. I've spread the word. I've blogged....now I just sit and wait for the numbers and the dvd release. I was patient before I can be patient again.
and yeah, FFF is a bit more level headed at times....at times, not always :-)

Yes and no. I agree with Thatweirdgirl that the ball is now in the movie's court (though I'm taking the opportunity to push it on people who look like they need to go see a movie), and that this board in general has that feeling.
Then again, I've run across a handful of posts in spoilery threads that caught some readers by surprise and got angry answers. Apart from that I agree that FFF.net is running serenely, on faith - that, or we know that the preaching needs to be done somewhere other than on a forum full of the converted.

We're just plain friendlier.
Closer knit maybe?

Generally we are a bit more level headed...definitely a close knit crew (not crewneck, that's different!). Granted, I do get caught up in the numbers game pretty easily, but I do find FFFnet much less stressful to visit. And god bless the folk here for that!
