Comment on Tell HN: Uptick in mean-spirited commentsparent

Comments

Every forum says "don't feed the trolls", but there are always people who do.

If you can identify troll-feeders, you might be able to stop them from feeding the trolls (just a text reminder above a comment field might be enough), hence create less incentive for trolls.

Not an easy problem to solve though, I've tried myself and didn't succeed. May try again.
