If there are people with the facilities and time to do the moderation,
then proposing it seems a good idea. If not, it won't happen anyway.
A very lightweight moderation (e.g. uk.legal.moderated) would seem
the best solution, and even automoderation might work.

Nick Maclaren.

these people have always existed, just ignoring them is the only
way.

You don't think you're the only **** to have thought of it do you?
Like your other troll plans it is a silly idea. What you could do is
go and start your own group of course, you are perfectly entitled to.
Then we can all laugh at a nother troll **** looking for attention and
ending up very lonely.

1) Tell everyone the Trolls don't bother you.
2) Say you've killfiled them, yet continue to respond.
3) Tell other people off who repsond despite doing so yourself.
4) Continually talk about Trolls while maintaining
they're having no effect.
5) Publicly post killfile rules so the Trolls know
how to avoid them.
6) Make lame legal threats and other barrel scraping
manoeuvres when your abuse reports are ignored.
7) Eat vast quantities of pies.
8) Forget to brush your teeth for several decades.

Unfortunately, the sort of moronic scumbag who posts trash/viruses/etc. probably has enough knowledge to by-pass, swamp
or over-ride any moderation techniques.

In the last week or so it's notable how the gardeners on the group
have pulled together to keep the group afloat and deprive the idiots of
attention. Hats off to urg, especially the hardy newbies who survived a
steep learning curve.

Urg doesn't need a moderator imho. All we need do is stay alert, weed
the garden assiduously, and keep on composting.
