Agreed completely.
I own quite a few forums on the Internet.
I have many...many...troll hunts on those forums.
If it's not me doing the hunting, it's a moderator or software.
I have a policy of not hiding who I am.
It can make me a target.
Team 11 has gotten requests to basically shut me up in the past for topics that they have nothing to do with.
(Needless to say I don't like being a target in FRC but FRC is literally kids stuff compared to some of the stuff I've help shut down outside of FRC where things can actually get dangerous.)
I tell Team 11 what I say here again: if we can't tolerate this diversity we have a problem. On the other side I try not to commit the team's resources; as I often can be out voted on the commitment of those resources.
