Should the forum close before trolls take over?

Should we close the forum so that no more trolls scare anyone regarding the 23rd? TODAY was the significant date for the Mayans! It is all over! However, some trolls are still going strong. Just a thought. I am getting tired of these people saying that they are still scared because of some pseudoscience BS that they read, even AFTER the world should have ended! What do you think?

Most of them have been blocked. Here are some threads though:

http://www.2012hoax.org/forum/t-607114/the-yellowstone-supervolcano-is-begining-to-erupt

These are the only two that I can find because they are the most recent.

Also note that they were created by the same person. Trolls like to pull your leg.

LOL! Too bad the thread got locked, I wanted to play with him. Tee hee.

Does anybody really believe that a volcano erupting at Yellowstone is really all that out of the ordinary?

ROFL!

An eruption at Yellowstone is very "out of the ordinary", and they occur every 650k to 700k years on average. Its most certainly not going to cause mass extinctions on earth, but the Continental US would deal with some major issues after an erruption, not too mention it could cause global temps to decrease by a degree or a few. Yellowstone ejected 240 cubic miles in it's last explosion, which is roughly 1000 times stronger than Krakatoa. The explosion was equivalent to 875,000 Megatons. So this event would definitely cause havic in the US, no doubt about it. With that said, its been roughly 650k years since its last eruption, so its due, but it could happen in 50k yrs or 100k yrs. Its also one of the most closely watched volcanoes in the US besides Mt. St. Helens in Washington.

The only place a volcano erupting in Yellowstone would be in the ordinary, is in the 2012 movie.

Point being, it is a vent like any volcano is.

I'm glad you have such faith in the actions of the moderators around here…

You don't have to respond to such threads, nor does anyone else. If it sounds stupid, it probably is. Let the thread die before it ever gets anywhere.

They will never 'take over' this forum. Even if they did, no one will listen to them anyway.

No, because if we do that, then people will never learn that any new date is completely worthless.

A lot of people that were scared are dropping this site. The public these trolls get is getting smaller and smaller.
And people will still have questions.
