Re: One of you guys should step up as the [censored] of MHNL
Banning isn't the answer, esp. for something as inexact as stupidity.
Low quality posts aren't the problem but the volume of poor posts. What would work best is rationing the number of posts in MHNL for most people. Who decides who gets rationed and to what extent is the tricky bit here. Regardless, limiting the number of new threads anyone can start in a set time frame would ,IMO ,be just what 2+2 needs. Maybe then people would reply to hands instead of starting a (similar) thread of their own. It may turn out that newbies benefit the most from this even though their posting is most restricted. It is hard for unknowns to get themselves heard above the noise as it stands now. Ironically, often the only way to get a reply is to say something really stupid. (cf 'online poker is rigged' etc. threads) James

[/ QUOTE ] while exact levels of stupidity may be inexact, there is certainly some line at which stupidity begins. while it may be difficult to objectively determine what is directly over the line and what falls short of crossing it, many things in this forum fall so far beyond the line that they could easily be banned. I'm not talking so extreme as to go on a banning spree, but I do think a moderator's power of banning should be used a little more liberally than it has in the past. I would suggest myself for the job but I'm waaaaay too judgemental.

Re: One of you guys should step up as the [censored] of MHNL
[ Disclaimer: SSNL noob, who should probably be banned from MHNL ]
If there were a "Recycle Bin" for banned posts, this idea would be right on. Some link somewhere on the board like, "You want to read the filtered trash, be our guest, it's right over here." Keeps the moderator honest, as anyone can inspect and protest. But it still gives said moderator power of discretion, and if you trust him/her, still lets you read only the good stuff if that's what you want. Complete disappearance of posts (books, films, people, races), however noble the intentions, will breed suspicion and paranoia in the end.

Re: One of you guys should step up as the [censored] of MHNL
Oh I completely agree with you. But I think 2/4 plays a lot more like .5/1 than it does like 5/10 (although I haven't played 5/10 I've read a lot of hands and watched the games). Certainly 2/4 plays very similarly to 1/2, IMO. I would make the cutoff 5/10 for MHNL but I understand that view is the minority view.
