I have two suggestions for possible alternatives. On some sports forums, where opinions can get quite contentious, they have a special section called something like "Trash Talk Basement." That way, if members feel like denigrating each other, instead of offering rational commentary, they can do it in there. And, if the moderator sees posts that he feels should be there instead of in the regular thread sections, he simply relegates the posts to the Trash Talk Basement. The good part about that is that any member who doesn't care to read this stuff, can simply ignore the Trash Talk Basement altogether, and confine his reading to the regular threads, with the sure knowledge that he won't come across any of that. The other approach is that taken by Delcamp classical guitar site, which is a lot more direct, pretty emphatic, and quite effective. When a thread gets out of hand – as this most recent one clearly did – the moderators simply summarily delete the entire thread, and that's the end of the subject.
