Thank you Don for the well thought out reply.  I understand the balance that must be struck when growing a site like this.  I enjoy all the work you and your team does to keep the lights on!

We will continue to provide assistance to those who are truly in need, show anyone who is misguided an alternate (better/more profitable) way, and still have time to laugh at ourselves.

The more popular the site, the more asshats you get.  Then like some have said, you tend to filter some decent folk out of the influx and get some great contributors.  Take the bad with the good.

So would it be unethical to set up a reverse honeypot of sorts and send the kiddies who want to hack myspace and such there?  Tell them the answers they seek are found down the deep scary tunnel and that there is candy at the end??

hmmm probably is.
