As such, I have no desire to participate there. Others may disagree with my opinion on the matter. It is, however, incorrect to say that trolls would be kicked out of "B", just as they have been kicked out of vortex proper. That does not appear to be the purpose of "B". "B" is a no-holds bar discussion (argument for the sake of argument) group. As Mr. Beaty has felt inclined to kick trolls out of vortex proper (most likely due to bad behavior), they are allowed to say and do whatever they want to do over at "B". IOW, the same rules don't apply over at "B". At least that has been my assessment of the purpose of "B". However, Mr. Beaty may disagree. Bill has the final say on the matter.
