Any questions about anything, PM me. The only stupid question, is the one never asked.

I hate you unless I'm drunk.
More people need to report; By saying, 'Its not going to make a difference' and not reporting, you're making the problem worse.
If everyone had the mindset of 'Its not going to work, I'm not going to report', then nothing will ever get taken care of.
Part of the problem with The Flood is mindset, they want to talk about what they want to talk about. They're not going to report threads on religion and stuff, because they want those threads, even if they're against the rules.
But I garentee if you post a shock-site (I'm not saying actually do it), the thread will be collapsed in less than a few minutes.
The mindset needs to change. If its obviously a troll thread, report and move on.
Yes, its hard at times to ignore the stupid that has been posted, but its for the best. If more people reported, the forums wouldn't be the way they are.
By saying, 'reporting doens't do anything' you're just exacerbating the problem.

I was joking, by the way, you may as well be pissing into an ocean of piss by reporting. While we're prattling on in here about the most inane nonsense, there are posters with brilliantly subtle names like "Econo Troll" [a 4 day old account with no gt, no avatar, no groups] churning out blatant troll threads about US politics/economics. I'd feel guilty reporting that post simply because the energy wasted by the routers transmitting the request and the server processing the request contributes to climate change, but also because it's not going to make any difference.
