And for the record, I think FAQ is pretty good, it just needs more mods dedicated to answering questions. I've been spending more time in there lately, but I get tired of answering everything.
THe community would rate posts. I agree with you about people thinking a falsehood is true, but the ratings could help clean the spam and trolling up a bit anyway. Plus people who often give helpful advice would likely end up with better ratings than those who don't.
