So, why be here? Are you that much of a mean person that you come here just to make others' time here miserable? Were you a moderator? Did you do your time to make it better? What have you done to make it better? Just in the last few days I've seen trolling and trolling from you. Very little substance - so why do it? Again, what have you done to try to make this a better place? Some people on here (both sides of the political aisle) really truly do try to have intelligent discussions. My inquiries aren't meant to jab you - I'm serious - why are you here and what have you done?

I am not talking about the rules.
I am talking about someone who is a pure "Richard" 100% of the time to everyone, but stays within the rules.
I was clear on this in my OP post.
Again...I am not talking about the rules.

As an aside, @Common...criticize all you like. I know you do not mean it personally. We are friends, and thank you for the compliment.

People who think a movie about plastic dolls is trying to turn their kids gay or trans are now officially known as
Barbie Q’s
@Chris...this would not be behind anyone's back. It would be right out in the open.
Currently you can report all day long, but the troll is still here. They either get thread banned, or the whole thread gets moved to the Hole...BUT THEY ARE STILL HERE.
My proposal would get rid of them by an 80% popular vote.
Currently there is no way to get rid of a troll who stays within the rules, but offends damb near the entire membership.
We should be able to take matters into our own hands and kick them out of our community.

Behind the back was just VIP room.
It takes time to get rid of trolls and with good reason: Too many think that being offensive is trolliing when it's not.
The forum's no trolling rule isn't very good. I would define trolling as being inflammatory with no intentiion to discuss it.
Tradition is not the worship of ashes, but the preservation of fire. ― Gustav Mahler
I share your definition.
Think about it.
If someone is miserable and hateful, and has a chip on their shoulder....and only insults and offends members or all leans...
Why should we put up with them ?
I say we should NOT have to put up with them, and throw their asses over the side.
...by an 80% majority vote of at least 10 members or more.
If they want to be miserable and spread it wherever they go, then let them be miserable somewhere else.
Remember...it will only get worse in the next few months if we do not put this into place soon.
Guaranteed, there will be more of them...much more.
