Actually I agree with you. I too believe ignoring the lazy is the best course, but that becomes ineffective once people indulge/encourage this by spoon-feeding the lazy their answers. Every once in a while someone comes along who is not only lazy but rude as well, and that merits a response. If a were a new member, the negative reaction by active members would not be lost on me.
On the biggest Porsche forum they have a practice where if a member posts a topic without bothering to see if the topic is already under discussion, he gets the Enzo prize which means every member posts a joke or picture of an Enzo Ferrari. It's heavy handed but effective in keeping relevant discussion from being split into 18 different threads.
