PPrune should perhaps not allow a thread to start on a crash incident until 48 hours after the event. It might stop the torrent of morbid drivel that we seem to get when an incident is first reported. From the prize to see who can start the thread to those suggesting causes when the aircraft hasn't even been confirmed as down - it's like a plane-spotters' morbid conspiracy-fest. It's notable how few comments immediately after a 'crash' becomes news seem to come from professional pilots. Presumably because they wait for the acts to emerge before spouting forth.
