You know who the problem users are when they cause problems...

The drama board is to raise awareness about the people who cause the trouble, so that everyone can hate them appropriately. Plus it would all spill into another board anyways. This way it's more contained.

on top of that. its free entertainment

I can't think of any other games that have a dedicated "drama" board on their forum.

It's quite simple to just report posts that break the rules and then for the admin to ban them. Same goes for servers: the admin can just ban the person and be done with it.

what if a dos attack happens on a server. a ban wont fix it and reporting doesnt work outside the forums.

Most of the "DoS attacks" on personal servers that are posted here are just idiots freaking out about normal console messages.

In the case of legitimate D/DoS attacks on things like hosting services, they can go in General Discussion.

well i guess you do have a point but i like class A entertainment + a way to add to my ban list without having to experience the people first hand.

What about DDoSers like Okiver, who abused amazon to get himself free keys, Hackers like Computermix, forum account hijackers who spam topics with gore and shock content, server crashers, what about people like JaZZ? Can you just "have the admins ban them" and be done?

No, not really, that's why we have the drama board. These things don't belong in any other board, and you especially don't want talk of DDoS's in general discussion. That's just bad news.

Those certainly don't account for 99% of the content on the drama board, which is useless garbage.

I wouldn't consider visiting the drama board entertainment or a fun way to spend free time...
I would rather play the damn game than sit around and bandwagon trash talk other users' affairs even though I have no involvement in them.

that would imply justice gets served
  I don't get why people act like this is such a bad forum, or that is super flawed, and that once you're in you're changed for the worst. IMO it's pretty great, 4/5 of the population are moderately smart, seemingly everyone has been a bad apple at one point, most of the people reading were most likely cursed with bad rep at one point, I know I was. I would really like to see someone list all the people with more than 2 dramas, and/or accounts. Also things are usually just, the we, the jury, or people other than me, are smart enough to have the better judgement, and keep things fair, they do get in arguements, but the better seems to come out on top, and hushes whoevers causing problems, or proves enough to get Badspot to ban them. There are a few slip ups here and there, but no justice systems are perfect.

On a side note, sorry for the super long off topic reply.
On topic: Is there anyone in mind who posts too often in drama? I don't see the problem, if you're telling them to ignore the problem, why don't you just ignore them? Maybe this will bring something to their attention about how they post too much, but I doubt they'd care very much, some people may be good for the section.

where else will i sharpen my internet sword and go to war
