Public notice: I'm now considering this user a probable troll and will act accordingly.
In the future, I may so consider and act, under these sorts of circumstances, without such public notice.
Does any (old-time, trusted) user want to volunteer as the mod who goes back and deletes all the troll comments once a user has been designated a troll?
That seems like something that should be automated. I could give you a script that (for example) goes through a user page and deletes (or rather sends the appropriate button press that would be a delete command when run by a mod) any comment with less than 0 karma. It would make more sense for this to be an implemented feature of the site but "something I could implement in an hour without accessing the source code" seems like a suitable proxy for "is easy to make a feature of the site, one way or another".
That sounds helpful. Let's give this a shot. (I'm running updated Chrome on Win7 if that's relevant.)
Thank you! Intentional troll or not, this user's extremely prolific posting of low-value comments is something I'd rather not see here.
He could have just been talking about trolling in the abstract. And even if not, after reading a bit of his history, his "trolling", if any, is at most at the level of rhethorical questions. I'm not really a fan of his commenting, but if he's banned, I'd say "banned for disagreement" will be closer to the mark as a description of what happened than "banned for trolling", though not the whole story.
