I sort of understand what you're talking about. Back when the OG board was buzzing, there was at least one good OG that you could read and post on. Every now and then a newb would break the story (intentionally or not), but we would either fix it or ignore it competely.

I suppose the best course of action, if you want to live a happy life, is to create your own battles with members known to be reasonable, and ignore the newbs if they're not you're cup of tea. The (unfortunate) reality is that this is an open board, and if people want to talk like they're on AOL, they have the tacit right to do so; I just hope they don't do it just because it's a right.
