yes, Flame Wars
I'm tired seeing trolling on every single thread, by the OP's part or by the replys for a kindly asked question
just create a Flame Wars section where these trolls can kill themselves and complain about everything in an agressive way

I think all of u know what flame wars is, so no need to more

yes, I know this forum is for beta tester discussion, but can't discuss with Trolls, I have the requirement of making sense on what I post, Trolls don't. This isn't beta testing discussion, it's already becoming Flame Wars

again, I would appreciate no Trolls replying to this thread, I won't feed trolls here and so shouldn't you.

Thanks for spending your time reading this :D

Serious post or are you just trolling? If you were serious, you'd understand why your suggestion wouldn't work.

On a more serious note: one of the ways I've seen used to keep a forum well moderated is to have a locked subforum where a vigilant set of mods sent terrible threads to, in order to make an example out of them for other people to see.

Those mods were serious business, though, and that forum was one of the most effective at fostering intelligent discussion.

may I bump this? I think it's way too important do be forgotten

@BluePojo:
that could be made too, but wouldn't have the same effect. ppl would continueing posting bad topics and the topics would be moved again and again with no effect on the community

How about banning every troll?
Okay , that would leave only 1/4 of the forum alive, but hey. It might work!


Now, I don't think that getting a garbage sub-forum where million of trolls would immediatly rush, is a working idea.
Only way is to have more moderators (and not arrogant moderators like I've seen before on this same forum), who can warn and mute.

if you have a bad day, u'll want to troll, then go to flame wars
with flame wars, the moderators at least have an excuse for temp banning the trolls on wrong section
also, Flame Wars will have low credit on features discussion, because no1 wants to read trolling. Final result: if trolls wants to have their ideas implemented, they'll have to stop trolling and start posting in a civilized way on these forums
and, trying not to offend the actual mods, they have really doing nothing to prevent trolling, in fact, you can troll here and won't get even warned, maybe the mods will help u :D (please don't get me wrong, but you guys need to moderate the community a little more, and I'm sorry if you felt offended, it wasn't my intention)

This forum looks like there is cop for 10 robbers. Hard work.
There should be some kind of Trolls-Proof bots, somehow.
Key-words detection like: "stop qqing nablet", "I Disagree and you are wrong and I CAP-disagree if you disagree that I'm right", "This is the Internet *****, stop crying or I pee on your head", "You are always wrong no matter what you say", "your suggestion is so dumb that I can't stop trolling sry".... etc.

d2jsp has a battle floor, it was for flaming and **** but it actually had a lot of intelligent discussions(mixed with insults). Anyone who flamed outside of there got a warn(they had some warning system and whatnot, warns were vry srs)
