I'm saying no more giving chance after chance and empty threats that are laughed at by those who have no intention of contributing constructively to threads or discussions and are only here to upset things. You need to know, you step out of line you're gonna get shot down.

That can hardly be deemed too extreme can it? Or am I just getting too old?

Of course a regular members don't want to be hassled (or trolled) but what I was getting at is the concept of who's "trolling" can at times be subjective. That although I agree this site shouldn't be the fly-paper of internet trolls, at the same time, since this site is (or was) a place for an open discussion of about almost anything, where there is (once was) one of much varied opinions. Members who offer different opinion shouldn't be deemed as "trolls" as a ways and means for certain members to have the other toss out of the forum (of course it's not that simply done).

I guess you are calling for mods to be tougher on members who obviously troll. I wasn't commenting on what should be done with trollish members, although I think that should be left to the mods. I was talking (regular) member who would go about complaining and calling "troll" as if the other is trolling when in reality it's just a personal difference or an on-going clash of personalities etc (because of the parameters of the thread, I can't give names or talk about specifics).
