If this board is actually overrun by derpy trolls and not just people who are expressing opposing viewpoints vehemently, then we'll be relying on you guys to stay within the rules and let the mods and admins take care of it. You can do your part by either responding civilly, or perhaps better, not responding at all and letting those topics live or die on their own merits.
Derailing another person's topic because you don't like what it says, even with ponies - that's not OK.
But since knapplc started the Shawn Watson quips thread, I think he can already be considered an unofficial brony, whether he likes it or not!
