[quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous]A few weeks ago I tried to deal with the troll via jpegs. Others - I think at least two others - joined in with jpegs mocking the troll. The moderator removed them all. Oh well. Any other ideas for stopping the progress of a thread derailment attempt?[/quote]

At risk of derailing this thread, the thread you describe was started by an atheist. It is not clear to me that an atheist (I don't think it was the same one, but still) could really troll it. I first became aware of that thread when a poster reported it to me complaining about the images. When I reviewed the thread, it was pretty obvious to me that the images were being used to disrupt the discussion. As the poster above confirms, the images were not being used as part of the discussion, but to mock one participant in that discussion. That is inappropriate.

Whenever posters start derailing threads, you are welcome to report it to me. Whether or not someone is trolling is a very subjective matter, but you can report that as well.
