Long read; I don't think beyond passive suggestions, and trying to step up to the plate to provide solid common sense, and a little more, there's much you can do.

Those rating systems, or 'canned' responses will end up abused. Anytime we as a species restrict each other, there's always fallout, there's always someone left bare. I think it's better for people to grow a thick skin, and continue on with the precious time in each of their days. Realize you may not be here, and you'll have much higher quality time.

As far as meeting personal goals? A forum is a great place to measure said goals against a wide varying of opinion, and troll, but it may not be the proper place for implementation.

As long as the "abuse" is not low pyramid or intentionally deceptive I don't see why it can't be used and called out when improper.

If I can read more content and reply faster, with better crafted words rather than some of the lazy responses I've seen (and done) then why not?

The development of my open source projects on this forum (/s/GlossedOver/wiki/) are not about "personal goals". Maybe my projects will fail. Maybe someone else will improve upon my model and go beyond. Maybe someone else will think outside the box in another extraordinary way. If I don't try we'll never know.

I can't disagree with effort, and I'd also agree that give an idea that's good, and someone usually will run with it.

As to any 'blowouts', I guess I missed it, and sometimes perhaps its necessary in the right circumstances.
