I think it really depends on the game (genre?).
I mostly play economic strategy / tycoon games and the forums are pretty chill. The most "controversial" threads revolve around gameplay mechanics discussion or perhaps complaints about lack of updates.
I don't think I've even seen anything approaching what you are describing in economic strategy game forums.
I would most definitely oppose shutting down the steam forums.
