I don't prowl the main forums enough to find malicious intruders. That isn't to say there aren't a couple of posters who annoy me, but annoyance is a long way from either an alert or needing to contact MIRT. I can live with that by skipping over the posters I don't want to read.

The LGBT group seems to be humming along these days. The hosts there occasionally use alerts proactively to bring interesting threads to the attention of other hosts to make sure the conversations stay on-track. Every group I'm sure has its own MO. So long as the system works.

As for me, I'm happy with the jury system. Really over-the-top comments usually are hidden forthwith. (From what I can see, that would be "much more often than not".) From what I can see, things are one helluvalot better than they were on DU2.
