A (not big, but existent) part of the problem with this community is the TYM mods who would rather pre-emptively close potentially heated threads than actually letting the problems resolve themselves. In most cases, drama threads are closed before the person called out in the OP even has a chance to defend themselves. This kind of hyper-moderation has had some serious side-effects:

1) the in-b4-lock mentality of going apeshit with putting people on blast, where threads balloon to 11 pages of pure trash talk to see who can spew the most bile before mods lock the thread

2) has created the 'need' for the On Blast Show, which allows for anyone called out in blow-up threads to actually respond to any allegations. The problem is usually just exacerbated, though, by the hosts of the show, who instigate and pick sides.

I say, just create a sub-forum for drama threads and be done with it.
I'm sorry, but this is the worst way ever suggested to go about dramatic threads.

You know what? Actually, you know what? It's awful enough that it'd work. Let's try it for a bit.
