> I wrote this before but I'll write it again. Since Bob went AWOL, there has actually been a lot less angst on babble than there used to be. Yes, Lou is still around, but Bob never did a thing about Lou when he was moderating, which was one cause of a lot of angst and upset. I can recall a number of "trolls" who seemed to delight in causing trouble, getting blocked, then reappearing under another name. Babble is smaller now, no doubt, but much less fractious. Lou still causes a lot of angst, but really, nothing compared to 4-5 years ago, when the admin board was just post after post about Lou and blocks and people leaving or threatening to leave.
Yeah, I notice the same thing. There's way less drama related to blocks and warnings, and fewer posters who seem to just really enjoy conflict.
