after much thinking I have made a decision to get rid of the problem user category - it is unneeded as while it served a purpose in early days it is not suitable for a modern wiki, as it simply alienates some users and makes it very difficult for them to improve - much like labelling someone a "criminal" for life.. they can never improve if they are labelled as "bad" forever.

thus I feel it needs to go - it also becomes a feeding ground for trolls, much as ASBOs are sought after by some yobs so too would truly troublesome users delight in getting a category of their own to gain infamy with.

Fandom Staff and Admins can already block trouble-users, no need to brand them as well.. it is a tactic that can't work anymore.
