Yes, I don't think the comparison with high school is inaccurate. Here is a link to the original heated thread from last year which, IMO, changed the whole tenor of this sort of discussion and of the debate and diluted the quality and usefulness of the feedback.

Judge for yourself the apportionment of blame here, but I wouldn't be too eager to castigate Rearden and cut him out of the herd -- that's just too too high school, isn't it? He does make some valid points. I, for one, was much less likely after reading this thread last year to comment, or to submit work, especially after the specter of plagiarism was later raised (but that's another story).

I, too, think that two forums would work nicely.
