Well said. If a community can't (or is unwilling) to assist non-trolls, they will often leave which lowers the s/n ratio further.

Dealing with them has to be done on an almost individual basis - some just get louder the more they are ignored, whereas others see the ban > re-register cycle as a game or an excuse to abuse the mods and admins of a forum.
