The trolls employed what the M.I.T. professor Judith Donath calls a “pseudo-naïve” tactic, asking stupid questions and seeing who would rise to the bait.

It saddens me that organised campaigns against people are carried out merely for 'lulz'. It's a shame that these f*ckers can hide behind a computer.

yeah not pleasant, especially them putting flashing images on an epileptic website. this bit at the end is interesting though (directed at his parents not about those he trolls but i'm sure it's still applicable in a wider context)
as is this bit about moderation of a new forum“It’s not that I do this because I hate them. I do this because I’m trying to save them.”
i'm undecided if that's a good thing or notHe was optimistic about Robot9000, a new 4chan board with a combination of human and machine moderation. Users who make “unoriginal” or “low content” posts are banned from Robot9000 for periods that lengthen with each offense.

This is why i always like to see the whites of people's eyes when i'm talking to them.
It keeps people honest.
It is harder to extract LULZ from someone when you have a freshly broken nose, for example.
