Go look at some of the threads in team. Those posters are not wanting the GD experience 8n their thread and it would be wrong to bring it to them. They wanted to stay away and we should respect that.

I get not wanting GD moved to team. They're completely different forums honestly. Just moving GD behind the paywall would eliminate 95% of hit and run trolls and sadly if fear of  outside interests is causing enough grief for the admins that we're having this conversation now then it makes sense. Better that than watch the whole thing get PC'd to death.

Please see linked thread with poll to this effect. I have been meaning to submit a formal proposal to @GoatBoy about it. I should get on that.

WTF,  the poll disappeared. It was roughly 70% in favor of paywall GD with over 1k votes.

True....I didn’t think about that. I like the idea of a forum like team where someone can post a serious thread without all the typical GD shit throwing.

Normal GD
GD After Dark (behind paywall)
Team (serious threads / no GD bullshit)

Just an idea.

A couple of suggestions, since, where the line is to be drawn isn't my decision so won't comment on that:

1. When people start saying there are rogue mods, listen to them. Everybody needs to get taught, account, mod, etc. we get that. But when they don't listen or the teaching moments aren't happening you get problems. The trickle down knowledge is important, and it's slow.

2. For minor offenses maybe a way to leave them in place so we can all see what the line is would help. Sorta like locking a thread but not deleting a thread. I always go in those to see what went wrong out of morbid curiosity. Deleting stuff removes useful information.

Or maybe a thread roll up pinned that just has a listing of edits / actions done and what it was... Wouldn't even have to be complete but you have a mixture of folks who PUSH the rules, and a bunch that don't really know them (some of them mods) that would have a place to learn that stuff.

Obviously, there are some things that gotta get deleted but zapping shit from orbit and leaving people wondering WTF happened just makes for more WTF threads.

This brings up another possible point of confusion. You've said that about posting more borderline stuff in Team is the right answer, but I've seen mods disagree with that, as the operating feel of Team is that it's GD without the antics. Can you touch on this apparent disconnect, please?

How about something that makes GD invisible until an account has been active for a specified amount of time and/or a certain post count has been reached? I'd rather not sully Team with our shenanigans. I don't think it should be a paid area.

I've been saying that for a while too.  I don't see what the advantage is of having it publicly searchable and viewed in this current hyper-sensitive climate.  It seems like it's just a matter of time before some threads and/or comments from GD ends up under the microscope of some commies on CNN or in the NY Times.  Then, we'll really need more helicopters.

GD should be no access without an account. Paid or unpaid.

Absolutely agree.

The problem is that if I had to guess, I would guess that 99.999% of the site's revenue comes through ad impressions in GD, which would go absolutely to shit if it were firewalled off from Google's index.  Also you wouldn't be able to search anything on the site anymore, as the site's search still doesn't work for shit.
