Oh thanks. I think they’re reproducing at an alarming rate. Help should have a family planning section for trolls to keep the population down.

In all honesty it should be like a test for help.com. A moderator who examines a suspected troll for about 1 to 2 days and if he doesn’t sound the helpish type he gets banned…and instead of banning him since he can make a new one, ban his IP address ya know. I am sure that can actually happen on some websites. :S

I really think it shouldn’t matter. To those who like to say random stuff to start trouble they are merely pests. It’s those who choose to respond to such idiocy that are the antogonists. Prolonging the trolls subject into a further argument. If they but merely didn’t reply to such stupid behavior things like Trolls wouldn’t exist.

lol a troll is a person who makes assholish remarks on a website to start trouble as said by the creator of this specific forum. Not a mythical creature from a famous story like bridge to teribithia.

There are all sorts of people at help, if you have an issue with one particularly, flag the comment, and the mods will deal with it, as soon as they can. They are kinda understaffed (IMHO) but although users see people posting anon—they can see who you (the user) are.

I think the anon feature should be able to be revoked if someones misusing it.

As far as I understand the situation Help.com is still in the process of replacing their web developer to make more modifications to the website. Things like editing others posts and anonymous posting are things that they have taken into consideration…it’s a matter of time and manpower.

The worse helpers are, the more they are set back and the less they are inclined to want to deal with any of us, or the issues with have with other helpers. How would you feel if every time you did your job people got an attitude with you and berated you?

And when ever someone politely tries to reason with them or ask that they stop, they cop an attitude and turn the whole thing around to make it look like THEY are the ones who are being bullied.

Nice person:Why are you being so rude?
mc.assy:Dont tell me what to do.
