ayyuh.

I'm wondering, though... should the RKBA treatment be reserved for threads STARTED by Trolls?
It occurs to me that it might be an inconsiderate usurpation of a legitimate thread, if we were to hijack it four our incult sport simply because a Troll posted a reply thereon.
If we were to make a regular habit of such usurpations, would we not be doing the Troll's work, diverting a thread form serious conversation into the mire of trivia, driving away serious respondants?
I think I must add a Rule to the SOP.
Your thoughts?

I agree. Threads started by trolls are and should be our lawful prey.

However threads upon which a troll simply appears should be dealt with by the VK's or the mods. Our showing up could be considered disruptive.

I would say that RKBA forces should only be deployed when the Mods have included the revered word ZOT in the title. They only do that when the thread is officially troll-infested.
