Just try to be more positive.

I'm positive that you're all talk no walk.

I would rather ask you now to tell me some valid reason to not discuss the ideas I have just proposed. I mean list now some possible flaws/disadvantages compared to the system we have now. I am sure there are probably some good ones else Theymos will have implemented this by now. I would expect he is probably quite well versed in game theory and things that can seem a great idea to a someone who is not may have actually suggested something with gaping holes and leave the board open for greater exploitation than it is open to now.

Did you even read the thread I linked to? There is a huge list of ideas started by hilarious and commented on by theymos. Some have been implemented (1 merit requirement for juniors), some are in the process of refinement (alt ANN sorting). If you really want to help the forum you should start learning how it works and what has already been suggested, accepted, or rejected. You'd learn for example that theymos is dead set against newbie jail like you're suggesting. But if you find a way to reign in bounty campaigns while keeping everything extremely libertarian - you'll be the senior legendary hero of the forum.

Changes here are very slow and you're not helping at all by throwing around random "solutions" to problems that you can't even prove exist, while refusing to use existing possibly imperfect tools.
