Thuely might not do his job in keeping trolls in check, but you can do your job in not getting trolled.
You got the order of operation wrong.
What you write on here is first and foremost your responsibility, not mine. It's up to you to keep yourself in check which is not an unreasonable request to make and somehow everyone is capable of doing it in the professional world where real life consequences are an adequate deterrent.
Only if all else fails I take action, if I am aware of the situation. On here the only deterrent is separation, and as we have seen a few times already that is simply not enough. I cannot make someone a better person, my only option is to prevent them from making further posts after the fact.
