Who suggested banning people for qutting?

As they say in the military, everybody breaks under torture, and we've been way too tolerant of sadistic nutcases who will stop at nothing to get their way.
We can improve this by reducing our tolerance, but part of that is reducing our tolerance for the complete cycle of drama and hate. It's harder to be hard line on our trolls when our 'best' are constantly operating at the edge and acting like children.
True enough. Very much a chicken-and-egg thing. The good part is that trolls are completely useless, so you're not losing anything by just getting rid of them.
