I know what it's like to run and moderate a BBS with all kinds of personalities colliding.
I don't know how many will remember, but back when Ed from the SSMBBS site kicked a bunch of us off, we started a site that was originally built to mock the SSM site.
It's called the Not Site, and it has a politics forum, which has gotten pretty hard hitting at times.
