John,

Good post.

For everyone suggesting that we just use the "Ignore this person" button, consider that as this thread degenerates in quality, you can use that button more and more until finally you can just remove the bookmark as John has suggested happened to the CSCO thread. Instead, it would be better to try to maintain the quality of the thread, reminding people when appropriate that the quality is starting to suffer. I'd much rather see the offenders stop what they're doing rather than just keep ignoring more and more people. One of the ways we get new people with new ideas involved is by having a high-quality discussion that encourages them to join and share ideas. Why would someone want to join if they believe that they're going to be ridiculed regardless of the stance they take? I sure wouldn't.
