One of us tried something with a topic which had developed a similar problem, the Creation/Evolution threads. We'll give that type of approach a try for the immigration threads.

So here is what is going to happen. Starting tomorrow, when I see an immigration related thread go up, I am going to post immediately a warning that this would be a very bad thread to engage in insulting or flame baiting.

This is a great development, thanks for posting this thread.

One suggestion: why not have and Immigration/Borders "hot topic" forum, as you do with Anthrax Scare and War on Terror? Not only would it make your job of tracking these threads easier, the sheer number of threads on these subjects warrants it.

Check out the following compilation threads over the last few months:

Because I don't have the ability to configure it. John does, but I do not know what is on his plate right now.

In the meanwhile, how about you and others helping out by making sure that these threads get a keyword of "illegals", "immigration" or "borders"? Then I can find them more easily just by using this and this and this.
