Troll Tag

Hello Chris,

Can we have a "Troll Tag" for troll posts.

That way people can just quietly tag the thread without getting into it with the suspected troll and we can all move on.

Please forgive me if I am asking for something that is not technically feasible

JCG-
I like the idea but even those threads that most people would deem "troll"-ish have their followers. Who gets to decide? Not trying to shoot you down just wondering about the process and how it would go. I mean- logically, Chris would be the one to decide, but I doubt he wants to add to his workload in monitoring each thread and weighing its value to the site and discussion- moreover is that something we really want as a community?
Just thinkin out loud- cheers!
Nick (and the dishy Kitty)tm

There is already a mechanism for rating each thread. Any chance to just make these ratings visible? Seems the simplest in terms of implementation as well as administrator overhead.
