| I've seen the various responses by forum admins to trolls - ignoring, tolerating, deleting, banning, confronting and so far I think the way TM handles them is the best - Confront trouble making trolls by moving offensive threads to the Steel Cage.
After a few times of getting slammed in the Steel Cage by several veteran TM'ers, the trolls get bored and leave and things return to normal, productive discussions on TM.
Yes, its unfortunate and not pretty at times, but it has worked better than the other approaches.
my 2c,
Greg
