Since you've asked this question directly, probably worse or neither. Those who
post directly on the topics themselves are the worst offenders, either pro or
contra. I'm just opining on the posters themselves, which is probably not any
better, just one layer of abstraction up.
Put it this way, I'm not adding anything constructive, I'm just saying I wish
the situation wasn't like this.

It's very hard to ignore it when there's a 150 post monster of a thread eating
up the top highlighted posts. Two of the items I mentioned, the Maersk ship and
the "custom" ships being sold, were the top two news items in this week alone.
I don't usually participate in them, but I do usually comment on the the threads
themselves outside of them, because it's kinda like the 800 pound gorilla in the
room that can't be avoided.
