You go with your bad self :)
Rather than a credit to FR, this thread soon will be seen as an embarrassment. Because of the bad behavior -- a case study in mob rule -- I think it will be expeditious to delete the entire thread when its perceived goals are met. While it may be deleted from FR, I'm sure it has been archived widely across the web.
Certainly no serious political candidate will be able to associate with a website proffering a thread of this type as its crowning glory.
Rather, this thread will contribute to a series of MA and Ph.D. theses in a variety of fields, including abnormal psychology, sociology, and anthropology.
In particular, it will be an excellent case study in mob rule, as well as what has become known as the "Lucifer Effect." Theses may also explore the Stockholm Syndrome, studying the effects on those who remain.
The particular subject matter of the thread won't be of much interest -- what will be of interest is the behavior of various members and shifting groups and sub-groups.
The most vociferous of the hi-fivers may now consider themselves famous, but their lasting contributions may be merely footnotes in Ph.D. theses.
