Obviously the answer is yes.  If you are a self admitted troll then you should be shown the door.

Without trolls, how will we learn to appreciate non-trolls?

I think trolls are great, the best actually. Totally unbiased opinion here

You might be saddened to know that when I was in high school, I created several troll accounts on the OMB and video game message boards. But I've repented of my past life and have been troll-free since 2003.

Do we get banned if we troll a troll?

Who determines a troll, do we have a troll dictator? Is there a test for it or is it just one persons opinion? Can you just ignore someone's topics? Do some take topics to serious? Do some not know where some trade rumors start? World is upside down now is this important as baseball may be gone this season?

Saddened?  No.

Don’t you have bigger things to worry about in your life?

If you’re so interested in having a thought police, then head down to the Angels sub reddit.

So what makes a troll?  Is there a ratio of decent comments compared to asinine comments?

 

And if my ratio is too low, do I need to be a jerk more?

A troll is one or both of these things:

1. Someone who intentionally posts annoying, asinine, or infuriating content in order to elicit a negative response.

2. Someone who harps on the same issues over and over again, knowing that doing so will frustrate or annoy people.

So you're saying my wife is a troll?

In my country we use the word “Claude” to describe what you’re saying

To answer your first first question, yes and we determine trolls by how many questions they ask in one post.

The cutoff is five.
