To Kelly’s point, making the observation about the site *members* always will give you your exceptions. I’m not sure why Kelly chose to specifically mention Lugnet, but you could just as well have said BZPower, FBTB, JLUG, Classic-Castle, Classic-Space, or whatever.

True, that. All sites have their troublemakers, or those who don’t play well together.

I mentioned Lugnet because unlike all other sites mentioned, there is no active moderation here - the only recourse is murfling, which happens rarely and only as an extreme measure. And also because I don’t know what site(s) actually brought up the current topic... to me, this is all just theory.
