We could also have a system like in Judge Dredd where the Judges can stand trial. Would be very expensive though :(

Also a group of forum guerrillas would be good. Anyone causing trouble can get their ass erased from the premier league on sight.

What if they use their power illegally?

Then a 2nd guerilla group would be formed to overthrow the first group and chess.com would turn into a guerilla war with civilians suffering the biggest losses.

:D

In fact a guerrilla war would be a good alternative to dead threads.

When I first experienced the forums here, there was much more activity. There were more participants across the board. People did more exhaustive research, and we were allowed to be funny .

The term troll was not coveted like it is with some of these "New Age" trolls who lack imagination and couldn't tell a joke if they were walking into  bar with a priest and a rabai.

I think much of the restriction of topics came about as a result of a misunderstanding what "hijacking" a thread means. Some posters insisted that all responses MUST remain within the narrowly defined parameters of some topic that they've deluded themselves into thinking is very important.

A forum topic should be allowed to meander like an actual conversation. Then maybe we coul bring back some clever posters and eliminate these dim witted "vigilante troll1s

The dim-witted are actually loved by the other dim-wits, the neo-cons breed like rabbits, and intellectual curiosity is an endangered species. It's all probably the result of humans mistaking evolution as a biological adaption to the environment with a mental conformity to stupid.

The league is a bad idea. Too much structure. If you want to form a band of guerillas

If you can't run with the big dogs just stay on the porch !

It's funny that the title of this thread is "What can be done to get the forums back to life?" and yet the banner reads:

I don't believe I've ever seen a schizophrenic thread title before.

I changed the title. What's so difficult to comprehend?
