There's little to be done about it. I've seen it happen to many fora. The more members, the broader the life experience range of the members, the more conflicts, etc... Unless the mods had the time to follow every thread closely, which they never could, and deleted posts and moved threads religiously, it'll never really go away. And, the more they do that, the more it just pisses people off, though probably not enough to make them go away, but just enough to stay here and take out their frustrations on someone else.

It would of course help a LOT if everyone was required to identify themselves, e.g. something like a $1 registration charge, which would serve as an identity check, and they couldn't use pseudonyms and such. But that'll never happen. That bird has already flown under the bridge.
