Cjmoles:  You can do whatever you like within the rules of this forum.  This thread has to do with campaign managers cutting down on shitposting, which they are entitled--and in my opinion,  should--do.  Does that sound reasonable?  These shitposters have gotten out of hand.

I agree...However, if those involved didn't show a propensity to engage in aggressive marketing policies and collusive recruitment practices, it would be a more legitimate organization in my mind.  Centralized lists, such as this, maintained by pseudonymous entities are easily corruptible and need mechanisms put in place to check the imbalances....I'm not here to FUD the concept, nor those involved, but I do have concerns regarding the motivations that drive it.  Spamming may be a problem, I agree....but collusive rings of anonymous thugs who promote, encourage, or otherwise condone reputation abuse is far more consequential in my mind....That's all.  What mechanisms might we put in place to offset those risks?  There has to be some form of remedy.  Right?
