Graham,
The HuffingtonPost layout is attractive and reader friendly. So any move in that direction would be good. Just a small suggestion on housekeeping, while the forum rules work well, many forums now prohibit labelling other posters directly or indirectly as 'trolls'. It is regarded as serious abuse. In any event, OLO's rules require complaints to be made direct to the moderator, so it would be in keeping with the present rules, and the amendment would only require the addition of a word or two. Perhaps others might like to comment on that suggestion. Posted by onthebeach, Friday, 18 October 2013 2:10:45 PM

"Perhaps others might like to comment on that suggestion." Now why would otb want to outlaw some posters calling other posters trolls? Beats me.... Posted by Poirot, Friday, 18 October 2013 2:40:17 PM

Dear Graham,
As you are well aware - many forums provide information on how to recognise and deal with troll behaviour. We've had threads in the past that have covered this topic. It appears that trolls are a very common problem on public forums such as OLO. Serious toxic abuses should not be tolerated. These constitute openly attacking another poster who has different opinions or naming a specific individual in a vile, insulting connotation, and ongoing harrassment of specific posters. Reputable forums consider these acts as serious abuses. We certainly could do without them on OLO. Posted by Foxy, Friday, 18 October 2013 2:52:12 PM

Poirot, "Now why would otb want to outlaw some posters calling other posters trolls?"
You needed to read my post. Here you go, I copied the section for you, <Just a small suggestion on housekeeping, while the forum rules work well, many forums now prohibit labelling other posters directly or indirectly as 'trolls'.
