Think about basil's rules for a minute. If you remember correctly, calling the trolls themselves "trolls" in their threads is actually considered spam and attacking another user. [quote] Basil : But what does that mean, Carrot? [/quote] You see, it means all they have to do is be just obvious enough for you to call them out as trolls! This means that not only will you feel rage and disappointment after reading a failure troll's post, he can actually report YOU and get YOU suspended. [quote] Basil : But, what should we do? [/quote] Simply put, unless you want people to think you've been trolled or get suspended, you should simply report the troll and move on. The Moral of our Lesson Don't feed trolls, kids. Just report them, it's not that hard.

Trolls will be trolls, no matter how many times they get reported.

[quote] JustAKid : Trolls will be trolls, no matter how many times they get reported. [/quote] Exactly. People don't see reason even after consequences.

I think this has been established already :I There's always going to be users that are oblivious to the rules, no matter how much we try to change that.

It's an open forum catering to a game designed for children. Of course there are gonna be trolls.

I already do this. I have no problem reporting the trolls and the people attacking/trolling the trolls.

I would appreciate a good troll every now and then, but they all, quite frankly, suck. Sites like "Emails From An ___" and the other, more mature-rated site can be humorous and a good read.

I'm Kevvl14 and I approve of this message. I actually approve of it better than Eto does, if that's any consolation.

This is the part where I post a link that says "Don't Feed the Trolls" but I'm to lazy to do that right now. But on a side note, every now and then a troll can be quite funny.

Most people don't know what a Troll is and misuse the word Therefore we don't have as MANY trolls as people think we do
