RE: who else is fed up with argumentative posts?
Thanks for the comments guys. Since day one we have had to deal with trolls, arguments and everything else. We have 50 moderators here and we rotate through them every few months when some burnout or just do not have extra time to lend a hand. We try to run as tight a ship as possible and granted I think there is a tad too much extra leniency given in the car forums and I think that should be tightened up a bit.
As far as those who went off to start their own first amendment sites and censor at will now...there was a word to describe them and it starts with "H".
Last...the number one weapon we have against off topic posts, argumentative posts, trolls, etc is the members. There is a report post to moderator link and that is always the fastest way for us to find trouble and deal with it. RCU gets 4000 posts per day and that is not possible for the mods to read them all and decipher every one. However we have 10's of thousands of members every day reading these posts so if you find something offensive, argumentative or against any of our rules just report it. We deal with it without revealing who reported it and it makes the mods job of keeping things informative and friendly here MUCH easier.
