: I can't remember, but did shutting it down really do any good last time?
Basically, it serves as a warning that calms fuckers down for a little while... scares away stragglers and puts The Fear into idiots.
But it rarely does any permanent good.
If the problem is one or a handful of people, it has helped.
If it's something systemic, it just fixes things for a coupla weeks.
