I didn't say anything about trolls, I said better in terms of "intelligent posters". VGChartz isn't perfect either, but I doubt you'll find much better unless you are looking for fanboy specific websites like gonintendo or such.

More intelligent posters equates to less trolls, doesn't it?

And you have to admit, VGC is still awesome, but it's deteriorating in quality. We need a trigger happy mod, like ssj12

yea... so should I ban you for no reason then? is that what you want?

And no, more intelligent posters does not equate to less trolls.

If I have 20 intelligent posters and 20 trolls, I have something interesting, and hopefully controlled by the mods. If I have 40 people who all agree with my point of view in fear of being banned, then I have nothing worth my time.

I prefered the orange, and thought that way long before my name turned green.

I don't mean banning for no reason, that was a joke. But there are a lot of posts I have seen which I think constitute trolling, and I've reported them, and the poster hasn't been banned. Then, there are some posts that are perfectly reasonable, which I've seen people get banned for. What happens when someone is reported? Do all the mods get some red text on the side?

Your example was quite strange. What I mean is that if I have 100 intelligent posters and 50 trolls, and 50 intelligent posters leave because of the trolls, and 50 trolls join, I now have 50 intelligent posters and 100 trolls. That's what I'm talking about.

VGC is still nowhere near that, of course. It's more like 70 intelligent posters, 28 okay posters and 2 trolls. In NeoGAF, those trolls would have been banned before their six months were up. Permabanned. That's ridiculous, of course. You can't ban somebody for their first offence, a first banning should be short, and teach the person that that kind of behaviour will not be tolerated.

I'm not saying that NeoGAF is a better website. It's an over-controlling bordering on fascist forum. VGC is better in pretty much every way. But NeoGAF has fewer trolls, though I don't like the measures they had to go through to achieve that.
