The online team over at the Olympian has been working to find a system that will curtail the flaming (and worse) that has been so problematic on their comment threads of late. They have recently implemented a simple way to flag comments that are abusive, and they are committed to holding to the policy of banning folks who don't play nice. If any OlyBloggers were inclined to bop over to the Olympian and lend a hand by keeping their team informed about bad behavior, I've been assured that there will be swift consequences for the trolls. So, maybe it's safe to go back in the water again.
