I read politics daily- and post when I feel like it. You guys should stop pretending you have some insight into how much I know or don't know about a forum.
I would agree that this is likely true. There's still far too many trolls that are allowed to run free. The bar for what's considered trolling is set too high and you could improve the forum a lot with more aggressive moderation. That's the point I'm trying to make relative to SE. I don't think forums that are prone to a lot of argument and trolling benefit from giving people a lot of rope.
