The thing is, the political conversations on the old pre-exodus DM were, if anything, even rougher than what goes on here. I don't see how it can be a surprise to anybody that it takes a lot of moderation with absolutely zero return on investment. That should have been obvious from the git-go. I am finding it disingenuous to complain that people aren't nice to each other when that is the way it always was. I'd prefer an upfront admission that it is a drag on the bottom line to any kind of preachy judgment about what goes on there.
I'm kind of surprised that Larry is only just now realizing that the Dealmac forum group in its entirety is an unprofitable drain on resources, since that's exactly why DM threw us under the bus.
