No they aren’t. They’re supposed to find burping videos here. I don’t disagree that there’s a lot of OF shilling and it’s annoying when it’s pushed outside of the commercial forum, but I come here to find burping videos and little else. Members have made a lot of great comps that I might not find elsewhere. The only major difference between this forum and the old forums is that there’s more commercial content now, which is a natural progression observed throughout the internet. Maybe other people have different expectations, but I’ve been involved (usually passively) in these forums for over 15 years now and I’ve never really asked for more.

Because they post and promote on other categories, even doing it sneakily like “oh I love burping, but fyi i sell too”
I know a few models who actually stopped using the forum as a place of commerce and use their own socials. It’s working well for them.

Just wanted to post a quick reply here to assure the fine folks who maintain and host this forum that it does not suck.
The tools are there to post things in the correct categories and users can ignore the parts they aren’t interested in. As long as people use the categories and tags correctly, it’s a surprisingly well laid out site and we are very lucky to have it! Thanks again to those who keep it going 
Also, while I would prefer sellers keep their ads strictly in the commercial section, I am still hugely grateful for the increase in sellers in general. Years ago when this forum first started (on the older websites), I never imagined we’d get to the point where people were willing to sell custom burp content. It’s such a niche fetish and we really are lucky to be catered to as well as we are.
As for forming relationships (as mentioned by the OP), a lot of that is helped by joining in on the various posts and topics of discussion. There’s also the many personals posts and for more direct chat with people, one of the Discords might be a good route to go

I don’t think the place sucks but I think the conversation can be productive and helpful. There’s always room for improvement and tweaking. I definitely do miss the vibe of the old forum though…
