This is just a general grump, but I do wish people would stop implying that our more controversial users are mentally ill.
It seems to me that this is a tactic aimed at dismissing them and devaluing their contributions ("Oh ignore them - they're just mad"). The problem is, this also dismisses and devalues other users with mental health problems. And as I've said before - not all us loonies are trolls.
Besides, I don't believe in effective on-line diagnosis (my psychiatrist can't get it right when I'm in the same room as him!). Not every troll has some deep-seated psychological reason for their difficult nature - sometimes people are just jerks.
I'm not trying to make a big issue of this - just keep it in mind will ya :)
