People favour simplicity I think. In my experience the most successful forums are the simplest ones.
VGC is bloated and slow (slower than 89% of the web pages, according to Alexa).
However, once you get to know the site it is very good, but not everyone manages.
One question: Did more people join the site when it was simpler and more straight forward? I would think that's the case.
No troll is too much for me to handle. I rehabilitate trolls, I train people. I am the Troll Whisperer.
