Thank you for that.
FR gets its fair share of real trolls and they are outed quite quickly, IMO.
I guess I would caution you in the future to not confuse honest disagreement with troll-ness.
Argue the issues. Argue the facts. Attempting to silence dissent does nothing to win over those who do not agree with you — it probably just reinforces their convictions. Allow others the freedom to voice their opinions — otherwise you will inevitably succumb to (or become) the very enemy that most of us are fighting.

I will openly admit I'm erring on the side of “troll-ness”. With good cause.
The pests I'm warring against have no interest in “honest disagreement”.
However, that's no excuse for sliming real FReepers. And again, I apologize.
