How old are you, exactly? I didn't start going through my problems in life for real (homelessness, crack addiction along with DXM all the time) until my mid-20s.

I get the idea that you're under 21 at best here, given your political arguments are being argued from an Objectivist standpoint; which is something most folks outgrow at a certain age, especially if they're using 'mind-opening' psychedelics.

There has to be some way of discouraging akira's more trollish posts..for example, at D-F, this sort of thing would be wildly discouraged via the use of "negative" points; enough of which causes a temporary ban (or permanent, depending on the individual); whereas posts full of information get positive points, and get the user elevated status among the ranks. It works a bit better than the "Rate the poster" stuff, which doesn't seem to amount to much given how many of them are either 5 stars from friends or 0 stars from enemies; rarely if any neutral ratings not coached in some sort of bias.

Under such a system people learn to moderate themselves given the board they're on; it would lead to a reduction in the quantity of his posts given time but an increase in overall quality.

agreed. i'm 25 years old. i am sick of diatribes and nasty retorts, but people just keep enervating the points they want reckoning with, so they can feed their useless voided shitty hopeless lives, when all they have to do is think and not be an idiot.

yeah but then we'd suffer from the tyranny of the majority.

recently i made a thread asking if i should poison a dog.  In my head i thought it was an interesting philosophical discussion.  i also knew the shroomery loves dogs and people would be super pissed and rage in a funny fashion.

If other users controlled who was banned and who stayed i would be waaaaaay out of here.  don't fuck with a shroomerite's dog.

ignore function.  it really does make your shroomery experience much awesomer.
