I don't think it's going to be very difficult to discover Eugene's new account once he makes it. The real difficulty is making it not worth his while to keep coming back.


I don't count myself as either a rationalist or a community member here, so this is an opinion of a somewhat sympathetic outsider (take it for what it is). But I think you guys should find a way to throw the nrx out, and let them start their own community. I think they are going to do more harm than good in the long run. Yvain started to clean house already on his blog, because he noticed the same.

If we have a "no politics" rule it should apply to nrx. Nrx people can participate if they are able to do so apolitically.

...nor do anything else as dickish as downvoting the hell out of somebody's every single comment because they disagree with one of them or use the anonymous account to vote.

We don't have a no politics rule, though we may have a no politics custom.

It's difficult to talk rationally about politics, but that doesn't mean it's impossible.
