There is also a lot more experience from users besides myself with dealing with these issues who will have ideas on what to do.
I'd just like to see that the community doesn't go 'nutty' because of a group of folks who stumble here and want to trash the place - so to speak - which will be easier to do while the community is just starting off.
The problem is that professional shills get paid to waste time. You could write a 40 page dissertation that completely destroys their argument and they would ignore it while posting more garbage. A week later, they're back: throwing out more disinfo and posting lies. So, someone else sets the record straight. And again. And again. Serious contributors get tired of dealing with the same garbage. New users get sucked into the lies and the cycle starts all over again. I do hope that you (and the other mods) will swing the ban hammer freely on people who are known to be abusive time-wasters. Those people have made the other board completely unusable.

I agree with you...I prefer discourse.
