The offensiveness filter that doesn't exist yet? Or the on-topic filter that doesn't block racist/anti-Semitic posts?
I really think that this should be a high priority (see GTO's comments on my thread about the racist posts a few days ago). This board loses a lot of respectability because there are so many crazed racists and anti-Semites here, and because there's no way to filter it.

I defy you to find one person that thinks the quality of posters right now is as good or better than it has been in the past.
Im not saying we need more people, just that we need *different* people. This place has turned into a wasteland.

Great point, dickbag.
However, despite the rave review, the links that people who never have heard of this place will click on are racist garbage. What do you think that does to the reputation?
Big picture. Look at it.

No offense, but notice how this only gets attention when it is anti-semetic. The racist posts here far exceed the anti-semetic posts.
Plus, I think the Jews out-number the anti-semites on this board 10 to 1.

Yes, I read what he wrote. Even mentioning that the anti-semitism on this board is at the same level as the racism is absurd. To be sure, both appear too frequently, but racism dominates.
I know he was not saying one is more common over the other, but I would contend that the racist threads are much worse here than the anti-semite threads.

Jesus Christ, yes.
If this board were re-formatted with even 20% of the irritating graphics and icons that LSD has, I'd immediately stop reading it. I'd imagine that a plurality of the good posters would, too.

Correct.
The difference in format probably explains quite a bit of why LSD is so much, well, slower-witted than this board.

I don't see anything wrong w/ Volokh's post -- the bad quote is from a law professor colleague, and as other's pointed out, Volokh's response is *very* even handed and even positive.
That said, we will be emailing Volokh shortly.

I'm actually glad (in some ways) that the racism/anti-semitism doesn't get filtered out. Before I discoverd this forum/PR I really didn't think that educated people thought the sorts of things I see posted here. A rude awakening, to be sure, but one I'm glad I've had. That said it's damn annoying and gets in the way when there's a ton of racist spam.

I grew up in a liberal college town in the upper midwest, not too many jews, fewer blacks.
I was unprepared, as a 1L, for just how annoying jews are. On the other hand, I've developed some strong friendships with the several blacks at my school.

My question is whether these posts reflect the genuine opinions of racists, or if it's just bastards taking advantage of the anonymity of the internet to be offensive.
It's annoying as hell either way, but I like to pretend (because of my faith in mankind) that it's the latter rather than the former.

Its the latter. I doubt there are many genuine racists here.
But there are a lot of people who, armed with facts about LSAT scores from Grutter, have developed opinions about the overall quality of minorities in their particular school.

That's embarassing. At some point, there has to be something more than an on-topic filter to balance out the free for all environment here. I've grown to ignore most of the racist stuff here but that is only because I have developed thicker skin in general since coming here. I don't spend much time on this board these days, but when I do check in I always see racist posts about Indians, East Asians, Hispanics, Blacks etc. which hardly seem to raise an eyebrow, but the minute someone makes an anti-semitic remark there is a big huff it seems. I find this dynamic pretty interesting. I also read an article http://www.calbar.ca.gov/state/calbar/calbar_cbj.jsp?sCategoryPath=/Home/Attorney%20Resources/California%20Bar%20Journal/March2005&sCatHtmlPath=cbj/2005-03_TH_03_ABA-minorities.html&sCatHtmlTitle=Top%20Headlines which basically says minority attorneys continue to face serious obstacles to success in the legal profession. Maybe this board is just a microcosm of the environment/views that exist in the law profession itself?
