What can be done about it? It's ridiculous to come here to pages and pages of troll questions and not even be able to report them.

Block them first, if you find their questions offensive. Then tell them off in their own questions. They wouldn't be able to report you that way either...

Then again they probably have another account they can report you by...

Are they still asking why there isn't a men's studies area on here? Been awhile since I've been around these parts.

you are able to no longer call the to blame because of the fact between the to blame events is a moderator. I had a question pulled 2 minutes after posting it and gained an abuse document and a violation. i'm no colombo yet no person could have stated it that immediately with action being taken until someone became additionally moderator. the diverse abuse document notifications stopped the comparable time i pointed it out to yahoo. good reporter isn't a troll that's a valid person and moderator, now that the cat is without doubt one in each and every of the pigeons you are able to all have a mexican stand off now.

Ah, yet another flaw with the blocking system. Temp IP banning would have been so much better. Trolls have 2+ accounts anyway, you can't really block them at all. So what's the point of it?

Oh the drama.
Its a very flawed system, and just like in real life, theres always ways for people to get around the system.
The trolls have multiple accounts, nuff said.

Yes, yes, and yes. That's why the trolls are careful here to block all the women whom they know don't like them, or to mark the option to keep their profile questions "private" (this means that only people in one's Contacts network can view his/her profile questions, but everyone can still see individual questions s/he asks). (Also be careful about trusting anyone who marks his/her profile private. Usually they're spam bots who post ridiculous fetish questions about wearing women's underwear, or are profiles of users who probably have generally suspicious intentions and know that people would report them if they had access to their profile questions.)

But, oh, can you ever still report them. Here's the general abuse report form: http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/abuse/abuse.html .

what is trolling and what is a troll? I've heard this term before and don't know what it is.
