I think these are all novel ideas, but letting members ban other members seems like a nightmare. As much as a few complain about unjust negative karma, I can only imagine what they'd think about stuff that could essentially get them banned.

Bottom line is we listen to our fellow members. If you see a member or a post you don't like, don't be shy to let us know. We use that feedback.

Also, I like how karma follows you around. A rating system should follow you around. How people feel about a single post of yours should follow you around, otherwise, what's the point? Might as well just tell them on that single thread what you think about their post.

If I know that what I say on this thread will follow me around, good or bad, I'm not likely to not want to troll on here.

Also, as several have aired their dislike for a few trollish members lately, have you given any negative karma?

(And some people HAVE taken the time to tell us what they thought of those certain posters, and we have acted accordingly. Thx to you guys!)

Define genuine?
