| Milforum's Bouncer | Don't know if this would be the appropriate spot for this or not but I think it is. I am a mod on a closed forum and had a conversation with a mod from one of these open forums. They have had a consistent problem with trolls and I referred her to this site for guidance. I think the rules are written in plain easy to understand english without trying to sound like some barracks lawyer trying to scare people in complying. Further, the moderating on this board is fair, even handed and consistent. You may not agree with it all the time but it is never personal, it is always professional and done with great tact and directness. In my opinion the "Hall of Shame" is a stroke of genius. Most people need concrete examples of what will not fly on a board. Rules are great but examples of enforcement are even better for those who don't get it right away. It reminds me of a "boot hill" outside of town you see as you ride in... makes you pause if you're up to no good as you ride past the dead who have gone before. The civility with which so many controversial subjects are conversed upon here with so many people from divergent backgrounds and worldviews is a testament in and of itself. Kudos to the forum staff, thanks. |
