    I wouldn't be surprised if the majority of new posters are accused of being a troll within the first 2 weeks of their posting here.
    People read that and think "Don't like these fights, I not go post".

    I would say give new posters a few weeks time, after a few weeks it should be clear if someone is a troll or not. Don't start accusations in the first few posts of a newby. It really discourages. (Unless, it is as clear as daylight someone is a troll indeed)
    Exactly thats whats happening here, this forum is like a private club for 10 members , new members will be accused of being trolls withing the first 3 posts. The moderator should be aware of this and do something.

    An odd comment coming just a short time after one new member has been outed by the moderator as a hydra and two posters banned! Granted that new member seemed genuine for a while and most posters accepted and "liked" him before he started throwing knives. And gaythailand seems to have had a bunch of new posters banned as being trolls.

    Perhaps instead of coming out of the woodwork to make a total of 16 one- or two-line posts (goodness, so Beachlover-like! ) with very personal - and often inaccurate - comments, loke might consider reading through complete threads first. After all he has a lot to catch up on. Loke hadn't posted anything since December 22. That's 79 days!

    ...and yet if you take a look at the page listing the various forums, you will see that it says "Threads18,224. Posts 215,271. Members 1,046. Active Members 421".

    That begs the question as to what make a SGF member "active". That he is still, perhaps, breathing?
    "The fruits of peace and tranquility... are the greatest goods... while those of its opposite, strife, are unbearable evils. Hence we ought to wish for peace, to seek it if we do not already have it, to conserve it once it is attained, and to repel with all our strength the strife which is opposed to it. To this end individual[s]... and in even greater degree groups and communities are obliged to help one another... from the bond or law of human society." [Marsilio dei Mainardini (c.1275-1342), Defensor Pacis]
