You don't need a club to inform people that trolls exist. Anyone with half a brain knows the best way to beat a troll is to ignore them.
"With all due respect" is a funny phrase that I hate. I'm well aware that you'd love to respond to me in the same arrogant manner as you replied to groundpwndr ... "even if it was too difficult for you to understand".
the big difference is the he outright insulted me and accused me of plagiarizing . You brought up a good point. you're a moderator and I have no quarrel with you, so I address you respectfully. I know you're used to people whineing and bitching and being direpectfull ... but honestly I'm not going to act mad at you when you didnt do anything.
the reality is, if everyone knew not to feed trolls, then no one would. if no one fed trolls, then there simply wouldn't be trolls. No ones going to post nonsense if they know no one will pay it any attention. Yet I see people feed trolls all the time. the fact is it happens. it continues to happen. I'm trying to help.

There's already an existing group with cleaner methods for handling trolls than spamming up threads with redundant "that's a troll" posts.
They're called BBS moderators.

With all due respect, is it wrong of me to spread knowlege in order to try to help people avoid being trolled? am I breaking any rules in doing this?
