I think the way to stop these guys is to expect for a post to stay on subject. If a post is about, say, MMO, it should stay on MMO, both positive and negative comments. But if somebody shows up and starts to attack people personally, and if that individual seems more interested in making some smart aleck remark than discussing MMO, that is a good indication of a troll. If I am reading a post about MMO (or whatever the post is about) I want to learn about that. I did not start reading the post to see some smart aleck remark by somebody who thinks they are brilliantly clever. I also do not come to the post to be attacked by somebody, or see somebody else get attacked.
Yes Bitog has a few Trolls, mostly re-incarnated Trolls though at least in my opinion. I had fixed it with my Ignore List, then the other day I cleared the list and had no one on ignore. I do that from time to time. I get to reinforce the value of the Ignore List by doing it. Set up a good Ignore List Mystic Bitog will be much more enjoyable for you.
For now I have no one on Ignore I want to see if the re-incarnated Troll/Trolls find this thread. LOL
