Have you considered the possibility that "don't feed the trolls" may not be an effective modus operandi?


There is difference between trolls and harassers.

If I will go through this forum and add reply to every post in an attempt to get random people angry, I am a troll. If I personally target you, publish your ssn and spread lies about you, then I am harassing you.

The solution to trolling is not feeding them in majority of cases, but it will not solve harassment problem.
