There seem to be more than a few new nicknames on here that start out as trolls from the beginning.
It wouldn't be a bad thing to just ban someone if that is their objective from the get-go.

Those types of posts are comic relief on a dull gray website. Don't be a humbug. |

If they got rid of every troll and sock, there'd probably only be four or five of us left. |

As long as we're mentioning ideal mod actions:
I think it would be nice if every user with say, a ridiculously high number of posts, got a chance to vote against trolls.
If you get voted against by 10 super-users in a given month, you're automatically banned. At the beginning of each month, the number of votes against you gets reset to 0. |

What about trolls with rediculously high post counts... super trolls?
Do they get immunity? Would they be able to rescue banned trolls?
edit: the baconator is awful but I suspect I would still go for one if it became available where I live. Although not that I think about it if the baconator became available so would spicy chicken sandwiches. mmmmm |

None of this is realistic of course, but still speaking hypothetically...
I suggest that no one would get immunity, not even the original thinker-upper of the idea. Rescuings would have to be up to the mods only, as that requires a more human decision. |

But what if the troll throws a +9 saving roll?
Can a level 12 troll defeat a superposter with only a level 3 Sword of Isis?
Stay tuned for the answers to these burning questions and more! |

Agreed. When someone's username flags them as a troll straight off the bat, it's time for a ban. eg. Wo buxihuan hanguoren, Gollywog, you_are_a_gesekki, and the one you linked to, you_are_a_seed_foot_nom. |

Am I the only one who slightly likes the anarchic stuff? The forums would be pretty boring if all we had were posts about the Won's depreciation and every other Dave's cliche. |
