What I do not understand, is if this list is so bad, why people stay. It
isn't just one person. Whenever there is any joking going on, or anything
other than posting "serious" research, there are complaints from a handful.

are just goofing around and having a little fun - not to mention trying to
point out that there is a person on here who is not who they say they are.
