Sting,
I agree with you - the moronic threads are the worst feature of this site, a close second is the income it makes from books - some of which are dodgy ones.
Although I get some useful stuff here, the moronic threads on non gambling topics do seem to swamp things at times. It seems to me that you are pissing in the wind here trying to discourage idiotic postings.
If you want to focus more on gambling threads, try Stanford Wong's Sharp Sports Betting site. Moronic posters are less welcome there.
