Eureka ! I've found the anti-troll solution ? What do you think about my idea ?

Question

Some of you may laugh, but I am really serious.

How can we prevent people from trolling ?

In general, people use extra-accounts for trolling, right ?

And they just don't care when their questions are deleted and when their accounts are suspended, right ?

They don't mind, because YA is a free service, and because they can come back again and again with brand new accounts.

So here is my genious idea :

YA remains free, BUT, a user must be charged , for security and anti-troll reasons, on his credit card, with a small amount billing.

For instance, it may be something like 100 €, or 150$, or 180 YTL, or the equivalent in any other currency.

If the user never posts trollish posts ( insults,defamation, racism, harassment, cloning,etc), then he's fully paid back after 6 months.

If the user is trolling, then he never gets his/her money back !!!

So then, these stupid people will stop trolling, because they will not want to lose their cash !!!!

EXCELLENT IDEA, DON'T YOU THINK ?

Answer 1

Maurice don't try something that can't be done

Didn't you see that the trolls (plostad and ,allan d ) are against?DOnt you fell sorryy for them?aWith no trolling they will have an empty life and have depression syptoms,apart from schizofrenia) :P

Have a nice day :)

Answer 2

It sounds like a good idea to me, however, how are we going to determine what is insulting and what isn't (apart from the obvious cases I mean)?

Answer 3

No way is yahoo getting my credit card number.

Answer 4

I don't think people should be charged for using Yahoo Answers. If trolls are so desperate that they really need to troll, just report their questions every time, that way they will get deleted and no one will have to read those fullish and offensive things. People will always be trolling, but let's not give them that pleasure, just delete their questions.

Answer 5

Have you heard of our constitution where it says there is a freedom of speech?

Answer 6

Excellent idea??? It is the worst idea ever!

That won't make trolls to disappear, actually many wise but poor and skeptic contributors will disappear!

You can always ignore answers from trolls, don't pay any atention to them, but many people are looking (and are in need) for honest and helpful answers (sometimes given by poor people).

Answer 7

Whoa!! What a idea!! I am a troll and i think that we must clone your brain.
