A few things to note. Just because someone is new, doesn't make them a troll. We have hundreds of new sign-ups each day and very few are trolls.
Remember the abuse button. Please use that as your first option instead of pinging or FReepmailing mods. This gets to us faster.
Please respect the site and her rules like excerpt restrictions, banned sources, etc. Please also try to categorize threads correctly. The less time we have to clean those up, the more time we can go after trolls.
Have fun.

Technique #3 - ‘TOPIC DILUTION’
Not trolling, I just have a short attention span and my mind wanders a bit.

D.C. Chapter Master Ping List
Some very, very interesting and informative reading.
Actually I’m pinging you all so next time the MODs get upset with me, they’ll think I’m their friend and go easy on me by only suspending my account for 24 hours.

TECHNIQUE #7 — Thread Trashing (made famous on FR)
Again involves fake accounts and a small cadre of rabid, but “arms length posters” who post angry and usually mild profanity filled towards the original poster, or worse yet, gang up on any “loyal opposition” postings. These escalate with the intent of getting the thread moved first to chat, then smokey backroom, and finally pulled by the mods, just to make sure no one see that the original post flew in from the “lunatic fringe”.

Missing...
The "Look at this terrible article" gambit, followed by mild criticism
The troll hopes to force many readers to at least read the article, which would otherwise be totally ignored.

“Statistically, there is always a percentage of the forum posters who are more inclined to violence. In order to determine who these individuals are, it is a requirement to present a image to the forum to deliberately incite a strong psychological reaction.”
Just tell me who they are and I will hunt them down like the dogs they are and will kick their @sses! ;)

I wonder if this was used by a particular campaign we all “know and love”? Still in effect from what I can tell.
