I rarely read any of Eadon's comments, indeed I heard his name first because someone was complaining about something he'd said in another article discussion thread, but often I was more annoyed that people would pre-emptively hi-jack a thread with Eadon-related comments without Eadon himself having to do anything.
That's probably what I've used most of my down-votes for so far.
Anyway. Could there be a button or something to mark a post as troll-food? It's not a great analogy, but it's like pigeons: they themselves are merely a nuisance, but feeding them makes things far worse for everyone and makes things really messy - hence local by-laws preventing the feeding of pigeons.
