So, if you are banned how does that stop a person? Couldn't they just create a new account with a new name and start anew? If you block IP's then they could easily get around that....so I don't understand this.
I don't know if you are familiar with Alina, but she (he) did just that. I think she (he) got banned about a dozen times over 18 months. By the end, she (he) was getting banned after 1 or 2 posts. Every troll has their pattern (what they get off on), the pattern becomes recognizable and they stop getting very far.
