Would you want a quality forum with handful of people, or one which has bit mixture of everything?

Its an quality forum with an mix of everything !

You will be always have people that has a other view or opinion in every forum.
You cant do it to everybody right , specialy in a forum thats have so many Users.

As suchmoon said Discuss and write or just stay neutral as possible.

Hire Bitcointalk Camp. Manager @ r7promotions.com

For number 2 avoid the reputation board :-P

Anyway, on a serious note, I really do not see any problem with any of it. This is a forum and everyone can have their own style of delivering their opinion. Maybe it's not much easy for new users to understand the style of specific users but once you get used to knowing the users more or less, then you will easily understand their posts and their explanations behind a statement.

It takes time to get to know a community.

I oppose your idea that there are only 3 kinds of troublemakers

Yep, he forgot the trolls, he forgot about the ones that not necessarily "shitpost by number", but not really read what was discussed before posting and the list may continue.
But I agree with OP. Sometimes one has to skip a lot of crap to get to the subject in a thread, whether it's his thread and wants go get an answer, whether he wants only to genuinely help.
And it's not only in meta.

I oppose your idea that there are only 3 kinds of troublemakers. What about the walls-of-text-that-make-your-eyes-bleed trolls, DT gang fighters, merit cyclists, and various assorted dipshits who bring their personal disputes into every topic.

Granted most of those live in Meta probably.

But I mean seriously, what's wrong with #2? It's a discussion forum. Discuss or ignore.

Self-moderation would be good.

So, you can full control of your thread went on other users making post spam you can delete the post by your self without waiting for a moderator to taking some action reports. Don't forget to put your local rules on your thread, so they will know it before making some post on your thread. They will think twice about making some posts on your thread but don't use this option for hiding/deleted a real fact on the topic thread because you can be marked as abuse the thread by using the self-moderations.

One of the examples from my thread using a self-moderation https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.54250200 on the "Trading Discussion" board one of the board could be for a spamming and chasing the signature minimum payment. As you can see, no one making comments or posts on my thread until now maybe they are too scared spamming on my thread since I have full control over my thread.

   The first set of people
+ They are spammers and those guys don't very frequently enter a topic of top quality- even if they do, it less and you can ignore- so if your post is above there class- that is of good quality- you can't be too concerned about them.

   The second set
+ Criticism should not scare you when you are sure of a what you putting out, some can be trolls -report- but if it's a reasonable criticism you should not shrink,

   The third set
+ Aren't you just imagine it exists, - no one is bossing you around here- don't be scared of the profile but get what was posted by the profile -helpful use it, otherwise ignore-

OP, are you talking about the forum sections in general or Meta in particular--you said "here" and I don't know exactly what you mean by that.

I'm not sure if I completely agree with these classifications, but I'd say most members fall into the first category anyway since most members are wearing a paid signature. And yeah, it's been a problem for years that people make replies with almost zero thought just to boost their post count. On the other hand, just because someone is in a campaign doesn't automatically mean their post was made for money (and I'd argue that whether that's true or not depends a lot on which section you're in).

2) so oppose them back

I definitely support this. One thing newbies should learn early on is to grow a relatively thick skin and know that relations can get....prickly....at times, and I wouldn't be afraid of speaking up if you're reading BS, nor get offended if someone calls you out on it.

1) if they are shitposting report them to moderator(I usually go with "zero value post" or "redundant post for signature campaign")
2) so oppose them back
3) well, if boss made a comment then you should be grateful Tongue

. Any examples?

On side note, I bookmarked your topic about dice to send you merit, I really liked that.

Every time you genuinely want to discuss something here you will encounter three type of persons,

1) Laborers : Reply just for the sake of increasing signature campaign posts. They will jumble words and consciously stretch the
sentences. They do not care about the quality of argument.

You can report these, if they get deleted (they often do), they can't get paid for that post.

2) Overcomplicaters : They will test any argument on Cartesian certainty, no matter how sound your argument may be but they will oppose it
with tooth and nail.

3) Bosses : Just look at my rank/merits/green trust, you should be grateful that I commented on your thread.

You can always ignore them; not much more than can be done here (unless it's off topic, in which case a report is valid)

You could also create a self moderated thread; clearly stating that you will not allow off topic, spam and some other shitposts; and problem solved. You'll most likely get called a censor or some other similar BS; but I think we can live with people from a forum being mean to us

When any serious participant find your topic (which was already hijacked by above mentioned guys with tens of pages), he will be like oh!
So many people already replied and they might have covered the point I want to make so lets leave it.

LOL.
