If you would take the time please scroll down and check out the individual who calls himself or herself IESOS. He or she has a rating of 73 and yet consistently engages in personal attacks. The following is an example, directed at VOX, of his or hers intellect.

"Go crawl back into whatever putrid hole you slithered out of and stomp your little zombie feet..."

Check his or hers past posts and you will see this is not an isolated event. Yet IESOS is not the worst offender.

Many other individuals, usually those attacking VOX, have similar 'intellects.' Regarding your 50 or lower trolling correlation: it may very well do that, it may also indicate, simply, that some of your readers chose to oppose the controversial opinions of some of the articles you chose to post on your site on a regular basis. In my opinion VOX is one of those commentators. He only responds with insult -- if you had taken the time to notice -- when insult is given. Again, a low average may indicate trolling -- but in VOX's case it certainly does not.

As well, the average rating of anyone is based on 'down' arrows. That number is flawed: in the recent past anyone one person could add as many down arrows as they wished -- and they did just that to anything they disagreed with. The ballot box was stuff, so to speak. I am aware that ability has changed, but the current averages of anyone do not correlate to a general site opinion.

Finally, a zero policy of personal insult should have been and should be your goal.

Should you lose individuals like VOX with unique points of view you'll will end with those who spew nothing more than that which reflects herd mentality.

Sabin is flame-keeper for the theories of the late cornucopian demi-god Julian Simon, a business school professor whose great idea stokes the wishful thinking that has overtaken a class of American leaders who ought to know better, and spread through...
