Obviously, real troublemakers and disruptive, non-Mav fan trolls should be dealt with severely, but I'd also say that on any board, overly aggressive moderator prosecution of minor board infractions is rarely a good thing (threats, banishments, or suspensions based on excessive vituperative argument, cursing lapses, starting occasionally redundant threads, etc... ) and can do much to retard and damage both the caliber of conversation and the level of participation amongst both longtime posters and newcomers alike. Walk softly while carrying your big stick and all that... would seem to me to be the best policy for any prospective new D-M mods, is my unsolicited bum nickel on that...
good work, my name is MavsX, and i agree with this statement.
