I'm putting this here so it's nice and official, and people can join in without having to wade through the crap in AR.
I would like to suggest that the mods reconsider the laissez-faire approach to trolling that they seem to have recently adopted. It's not working. In theory, it's a great idea, sure. Just let the marketplace of ideas ensure that we maintain quality content in the forum! The trolls go away frustrated when we refuse to bite, we're a stronger forum for it, etc. But that's not what's happening. Instead, the trolls are being replied to, being encouraged, being given exactly the replies they're looking for, and are continuing to spread their garbage all over the forum, ruining it for everyone.
In short, this community cannot be trusted to keep this forum from turning into little more than a joke. We need guidance. We need babysitting. We need an adult to come in and turn off the hot stove that we keep touching. Yes, it's immature and pathetic, but it's clearly the reality, and there's no point in ignoring it until this forum has been reduced to "i amm teh tipicul falt earter, sory abut my smelling" and "If evolution is real, why are there still rocks?"
