You you want the "adults" bullying users and developers instead?

You really do not want what you are asking for.

In the same way I want the police to take over the sex trafficking business from the mafia. So no.

I believe I know my mind better than you do.

Of course, the only reason the mafia is involved in the first place is because sex work is illegal in most jurisdictions. So the analogy is worse than a mere leaky abstraction. You're advocating a cure that's worse than the disease, in both cases.

Sex trafficking still exists where prostitution is legal. Nice try.

Wanted or no, it is the end result you will get.

I believe you do, too. What I am questioning is if the end result is what you think it to be.

Surely you can substantiate that claim?
