Pretty much the two types of trolling you mentioned are what's going on, but with some grey area. Like, Zeni..err MOST of Zeni's threads (excluding the OKC threads) are the ones which are not hurting anyone. But, Then he goes around following Viper or others (not as much but I have noticed it) and makes threads/replies to said user's threads to start shit.
As for the second statement, I do agree. Part of me thinks Luuv was still in 2008 when he created this place, where honestly all of those things weren't anywhere near as much of an issue generally on the internets. So yeah, it's time to put the hammer down, but we need a system for how hard we use that hammer.
(if my wording or replies suck, my bad, I am sick as hell.)
