yeah i'm against censorship but when one is clearly trolling to make the site look bad just ban them, keep doing it, they will come back after one ban with a new name but eventually they'll either make legit posts here or stop trying to troll.

Yup.

This is what happened to Voat. If you don't kick the assholes out of your pool party, then your pool party will pretty quickly fill up with assholes.

It's really up to the host to do this. I love hanging out on this website but I don't have the energy to police people. I almost didn't join because I view Wonderwoman's posts as a sign that management is asleep here.

Is Wonderwoman friends with management? Great. OK. Then the site admin should admit that so that we can all just block him (Wonderwoman?) and then life can move on.

But if no one here likes Wonderwoman, then he should get the boot.

I tried blocking all trolls and shills here, but found that had the annoying side effect of making it so I didn't see posts from the legit good posters if they were replying to one of the shills. So I would always see a thread that supposedly had like 30 comments on it, then I open it up and I see no comments. Sometimes even if a thread comment is started by a shill, good posts come after it. I'd have no way of knowing though if it was a good discussion or not, so it was annoying just having to wonder.

I think that was fixed recently.

I don't think so
