All I can tell you is that some of the threads have reduced grown admins to tears of helpless laughter.

Yes, it does cause quite a commotion for a little while, but a) watching the victims curse and threaten and generally go ape sh*t in Swedish Chef speak is just too funny for words, and b) you can turn it off any time, and let the victims know that if they annoy you again, they'll get encheferized again, or booted.

Basically, the reason I wrote this was as a last resort before having to ban trouble makers. As I said in the release ntoes, encheferizing has a way of bringing peer pressure to bear on trouble makers. You don't even have to say a word - your members will eventuall work out what's going on. It worked on Usenet 15 years ago, and it seems to work on bulletin boards now.
