The reason the Lounge is such a good forum is because all the undesireables, the derelicts, idiots, flamelogs, and most importantly, the idiots have been driven off. Visit any other forum and there's a great chance that it's populated, not surprisingly, but a good cross section of the internet populace. That is, a bunch of idiots, derelicts, undesirables, and idiots.

You can't enforce the no-idiot policy in writing or in any way other than the attitude of the veteran members. It's really the only vigilant way. So the veterans are generally sensitive to idiocy, in all its forms. Any symptoms of idiocy in a post and the sirens go off. Symptoms include: restatement of the obvious, poorly constructed ideas, etc etc, and of course, bad spelling and bad grammar.

Now, the problem is that poor spelling and grammar usually but definitely not always are signs of a bigger underlying problem, like, say, idiocy (again I'm using this as a catch-all term). Because 90% of the time it is, we all assume this person needs to be taught to behave around here, or needs to be driven out. If wiccan's ailment is a real one, obviously this shows the flaws in a prejudicial clique system.
