    As soon as you start this you will be accused of being anti mod whatever that is.

    I guess that ultimately banning has to be an option for someone who is determined to be an arsehole however I think that it may be counterproductive with this troll. The other point is that you may be able to justify banning for the troll but the power was abused in the banning of nicegirls were his banning was payback time rather than for the actual offence also qph abused the power in banning pats bodyguard at the time on the pretence that it was for multiple profiles.


    Anyway banning is essentially pointless the only reason the troll gets caught is because he wants to be caught HD makes no attempt to hide but if you don't ban him then what do you do with him???
    Its the Crips and the Bloods all over again

    I tried on two occasions to have someone banned for posting fake reviews that delibrately tried to ruin escorts reputation but to no avail.

    seems trolls can do more damage

    as for that tosser last night and tonight , waste of time banning him , he just come back again.....I dont think anyone takes notice of him at this stage ,,just edit/delete his posts.

    Maybe be if patty had listened to a suggestion i made many moons ago about not letting people post for a set time after registering , we would have less trolls and i would have less one time wonder reviewers to deal with

    yes but the pattern in itself confirms he is a troll. If he was not banned, then some readers who are new to E-I or not regular readers, might actually believe the lies the troll says. Banning him is confirmation from mods and regulars that he/she is indeed a lier and troublemaker. Once confirming this troll behaviour, then newby readers will know that the girl being talked about is genuine and respected. If you let the troll shit all over the place, you will be letting innocent escorts be unnecessarily attacked.

    Well we have a soap opera section, but maybe we need a troll section now. Send trolls to the "Trolls Sitting Room" How about it Patricia? LOL The Trolls Sitting Room where shite tapas are served without troll's fear of banishment. Serving only Troll shite Tapas that they dish in their arses and dish out their mouths.
