I'm just going to point this out here, Im not a mod or anything but I have children of my own. Im not voting because I have no opionion on the subject, do as you will. However, I'd point this out so you all know what your getting into. The moment you all try to control the chat is the moment the various trolls and griefers are going to come out of the wood work. Groups like ITS (International Troll Society) and others literally have forums of thier own to talk about what sites to hit, when and where. Any time a group of mods decides to crack down is the moment they all come out to play. Some of those chats are Trolls baiting you all. Also a ban doesn't work for crap, really there is no way to enforce it unless you can get wikia to do an IP ban but that won't happen, (and even then some know ways around that as well). So anyone you perma-ban is just going to make a new account and be right back on with a vengence. I know because I've seen it time and time again.

Frankly the internet is not a safe place for children anyone who thinks otherwise is lying to themselves. However, because its not a safe place for children its only a matter of time before anonymity on the web is a thing of the past and all our accounts are linked to our ID's. Then once everyone is identified and can't hide behind avatars, then trolling and the like will greatly decrease.
