It won't work. Believe me, IIN did try a similar experiment but it didn't work.
The best thing we can do is to just utilise the tools we have on hand ie. the thumbs up/down system and also the approval story button in the unmoderated section. Posting stories like this will entice trolls to post such material you wish to stop. You're giving them a reaction with this post and that the very thing that trolls thrive on.
Due to all the crap on it, and a couple of us spending half of our time on it deleting crap off it, I asked Udi to close it off late last year. Don't get me wrong, the experiment went great with our regulars but the trolls took advantage of the forum.
Do you think there should be a separate IIN site for younger people?

Yes we had a separate forum.
