I was aware of that, but I think the fact that this kind of selective trolling should be reserved to L&R, or P&N, I don't really care both forums are a joke to me, it should automatically be locked or moved.

While I agree that P&N is a joke, L&R isn't. Not often, but occasionally people are actually helped there. Because of that some of us wade through the dreck and stupidity and try to give sound advice. People troll Tommy and Alky there because their presence is unwanted due to their behavior. However, like anyone craving attention, they'll take whatever they can get, especially abuse. I liken it to them being B&D/S&M junkies, only the abuse they crave is emotional. It stimulates them to be attacked and humiliated, and in all seriousness, they need professional help.

I would say we'd all be better off if everyone put them on ignore, but they'll only escalate things until someone gives them what they need. Permabanning them is a good solution for AT, but it just kicks the problem down the road for someone else to deal with.
