I too would like to endorse & show concern on this dreadful policy of outside bashers coming to Agoracom Forums simply to disrupt issues & belittle loyal Agoracom members.

Drandres is right in addressing this issue & obviously there is concern how to address it! Somehow changes need to be made but how? The ranking system needs an overhaul - less emphasis on rank - I agree with Doc! How we can screen these intruders remains a mystery! However Doc is right - to improve the system for all & re-assess the ranking system itself to stop the trampoline effect Doc described.
