I can imagine that the moderators have a frustrating time - but I felt that OD and the way in which it can get out of hand was the forum's sacrificial lamb so that we don't get that kind of head butting on the technical forums. Or at least the head butting is reduced...
...some people need to let off steam and politics is one subject that can really get 'em going.
I don't see any benefit in keeping people who don't contribute in a positive manner on the technical forums but make trouble on OD though; that's not in the spirit of the forum. I understand it to be first and foremost to be a forum to help sell car parts - not a %&*&^* in your fellow member's face forum - there are other places for that on the internet.
