Could someone please point out some examples of trolling to me? I find this discussion surprising because I perceived the trolling rate as low to non-existent. Perhaps I've frequented the wrong threads.
The most obvious example of trolls right now is this post and some of its comments, although as far as trolling goes, neither are very effective.
That post wouldn't exist if the karma penalty hadn't been implemented.
And even so, it's only 15 comments.
Agree denotationally... but I hope you are not proposing a policy of avoiding things that could make trolls unhappy with this site.
Oh, yeah... nevertheless, the history of the post & comment authors contains some "trolling".
