Pile-on at DR

I occasionally see a bit of pile-on at different DR venues (and noticeboards in general). Over the last few years, it seems that DR is sometimes viewed as an invitation to a feeding frenzy, which is not very helpful when trying to resolve disputes. I completely missed it when the survey was being constructed, but perhaps this concern could be kept in mind while reviewing the DR survey results. It's possible that DR sometimes isn't as effective as it could be because of pile-on. I'm wondering if people could be more focused on resolution and less on dispute if that would make the process more efficient. 64.40.57.54 (talk) 02:08, 21 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Us DR folk chat quite a bit about how we can make dispute resolution more efficient. I have an unusual idea that I think I'll circulate around with a few people and see if it's a viable option. Thanks for your comments. Regards, Steven Zhang Talk 13:47, 22 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
