I agree. I think the virtuous way to go would have been for these new witnesses to propose ideas that would reform the system to reduce or eliminate the exploits, not just avail themselves of different exploits to try to strongarm their opponents. Part of the reason the Hive spamming and trolling makes me so angry is that it actively interferes with any possibility of having fruitful discussions here about ways that things could be reformed. It's hard for anyone to switch out of "war" mode when others are screaming in their faces.
