How do you spot a troll? Moderators can access IP addresses. What are the signs of a troll?
Examples?

Hi Simone.
You can spot a troll [sometimes] by their outrageous questions like:
"I'm in love with my pet goat"
"My brother and I are lovers- husband doesn't know"
"Having triplets- but still a virgin and 14"

When someone posts and every post has different info, in one post it's a woman, in another a man, one a teen, the other an adult, that's a pretty good sign. It's free to sign up, no one should be sharing accounts.
Also the ones with outrageous questions that make absolutely no sense. Like the boy who asked how he could become a border collie. Bored teen = troll. :)
Does that help?

I think my favorite example is the question about being sexually attracted to pizza.
OMGOSH PIZZA SMEX!

The main reason I asked is this post: https://www.askmehelpdesk.com/adult-sexuality/10-yr-marriage-boring-sex-life-379469.html
Probably not, but something's off.

Looks like a troll to me.
If it walks like a troll and smells like a troll and sounds a troll, most likely, it's a troll.

Thanks, I needed the validation. We could both be wrong, but it does smell funny doesn't it?
How do you know though? If it walks like a troll, what does that walk look like? Is this something a person identifies with facts? Is it subconcious?

Best way to deal with trolls is to ignore them. They are looking for attention and will give up if no one reacts to them.

Here I thought that was watching Jerry Springer and the world of derelicts
I know with this last rash of them I am starting to get my good ole sarcastic mind back
Also I am ready to join Alty and start a Trichotillomania addiction.

Heck they just arrested someone locally for having sex with his dog.
But is the goat underage, or was it with consent?

Is there a legal age limit on goats?
It reminds me of a joke.
Honestly officer I was just helping the goat over the fence.
Why do guys have sex with sheep on a cliff? Because the sheep pushes back.
Enough. I'm tipsy.
Later. :)

Vaughn told me a guy he went to school with had sex with a sheep.
I threatened to go down to his home town and beat the guy senseless.
He wouldn't tell me his name after that.

Sounds like the guy don't need beat senseless
Sounds like he needs sense beat into him.
