there are starting to be trolls on this site.
can you please make a post limit or something so they can't make new threads unless they are committed to 100-150 posts.( or something like that?)

100-150 seems excessive. 50 is more reasonable, but even that isn't necessary, if the rest of the members just learn to ignore them.

then what if they make stupid comments on real threads?

You know, that doesn't really help, because instead of creating new threads, they'll post on existing ones.

If the mods are actively pursuing them, they'll eventually be weeded out by members reporting the offending posts.

The problem is that they aren't necessarily breaking the official rules. THe only one Lucinda has come close to breaking is starting flame wars and even that is questionable.

If people respond and post, they feed the troll. If you're riled up by a person, use the ignore feature. It's handy in weeding out posts like that.

We're not implementing any posting restrictions. If you see a troll, just report the post and we'll take care of it.
