Banning ad hominem might do the same thing more simply...I can't tell you the number of rational discussions I've seen get dragged into the mud because someone's idea of a rebuttal was equivalent to "You stink!". My own nature not being angelic, the temptation to respond in kind, only with far more wit than such detractors bring to the table, ends in a downward spiral. But the boards have been like this ever since I can remember, so...
