<p>Most such discussions are indeed a source of entertainment. But there are a few that might actually lead to genuine reform. After all, the first step towards any reform is to have people talk about it. Maybe I can spark an idea in somebody’s mind. Maybe somebody with some clout will read this thread. Who knows?</p>

<p>But hey, if you truly believe that nothing productive is ever generated by these boards, then why do you even participate at all? Give me a break. You’re free to leave at any time. Nobody is holding a gun to your head.</p>
