Are we not at the point where this change is a bit too late? I feel like this is a realization we should've had from the start. Not now that we're realizing there might be a problem.

The issue isn't whether or not people realize the problem, the issue is the amount. I think almost everyone who frequents the bitch thread knows about the issues, recognizes the issues and combats them, but the simple fact is that the majority of the site doesn't regular the bitch thread- much less the discussion threads like this.
