What do you think about adding number of ignores to the troll formula?

That makes sense, because it's stronger and rarer than mere "dislikes". And it has the advantage that it's hard to game, because you can just ignore someone once. OTOH, you can dislike hundreds of comments.

Should I put in some limit on the times or rate at which one person can dislike comments from another? I can imagine a bitter troll disliking a hundred comments by someone else, one after another without reading them, just out of spite.

Yep, that could totally happen.

Don't Redit and Craigslist limit the number of times someone can up/down a post?

*Yawn*

You folks are like the Libs here at work. They can stand around kvetching out loud so everyone in an earshot can hear, about how bad the economy is, and how it's the republican's fault, and how bad Romney is. But as soon as someone says anything pro conservative to counter their claims, they invoke rule number in the company policy handbook they wrote in them selves. "No talking about politics" which in reality translates to "Don't counter argue Left talking points"

And do you interject your opinion with the same savoir faire that you do on internet forums?

Isn't it ironic that those belaboring the most about "trolls" are those very lying bastards who flood this site with housing misrepresentations and lies.

A liar is a liar and will be exposed as a liar. Take note.

Says the person who changes his name more times than his underwear.

Yes, I call you a troll. I wonder why that is.

And all of this trollishness rating is ridiculous. You get in an argument with someone and they start pressing dislike for every post you make irrespective of the points you raise. Does that mean you are a troll or that you have just rattled somebody's cage?

I don't count Cloud as a troll, for example, because at least he is trying to make his point. He may well be pressing the dislike button for my posts, but I presume he's doing that because he doesn't like what I'm saying rather than thinking of me as a troll. You though are a troll. You change your name almost daily. You post the same things over and over again pretty much verbatim. You don't engage in discussion. You invariably just reflect people's responses back at them in your childish way etc. etc.

It's obvious who is trolling on here and it's equally obvious that some hackneyed system for evaluating that isn't necessary.

No question. And it is you. The most egregious trollers are LIARS. And you lie here in nearly every post.

Ho, ho, ho. You're a persistent little so-and-so. I'll give you that.

And 23 ignores, whatever your name is today. Am I the only person left on this forum who actually sees your posts?

Probably.
