Is there any form of active moderation in here? Ive been reading these boards in all sections there are half dozen trolls with over a thousand posts giving people a hard time. Ironizing,  mocking, trolling and discouraging people in many ways.

That's called discussion. Unless it's swearing and abuse, or contravenes the stated rules of the community, it should not be moderated. If people don't wish for this they should not be posting their questions on an free-access public forum.

However, we could use some remedial work on the level of spam advertising.

There is no active moderation. Suck it up.

If I was to be critical of your choice of words, would that come under the heading of 'ironizing'?

It's actually a fairly friendly and international bunch here - we just all have our own quirks I guess, and there are plenty of come-and-go colourful characters, who I half-suspect are actually the website owner who is generating some interest so that the website keeps getting used!

Every now and then Steelrat bounces people for violating the forum rules. Sven was allowed back. 10,000 posts and only a few silly complaints. So Steelrat has a brain.

I agree anybody who lives in Brazil must be an adventurer. Lots os adventure here.

It’s like when a bunch of beer drinking buddies hit the urinal together and some joker says, “Time to get a grip dudes.”

I think that posting IP address next to the user name in posts will resolve a lot of problems. However the owner doesnt even know how to change the structure of the forum so he will not know that either...
