For my two pen'orth )sorry, English idiom)...
There has already been too much discussion about this on here. There is nothing anybody can do to stop anybody on the internet being trolled, whether it is on Twitter, Facebook, on a mailing list or anywhere else. Its annoying, and often downright sinister and disturbing. But talking about it and wringing your hands at length is just 'feeding the trolls'. I suggest everybody just shrugs it off and moves on. Even a 'code of conduct' is a way of letting the trolls know they are making an impact. I get trolled regularly on Twitter because I dictate most of my Tweets and IOS often types 'to' when it should type 'too', or 'there' when it should plainly be 'their'. Something like that is too stupid to even waste a breath over. This abuse might be far worse than that, but it is still done from afar, and talking about it is exactly the troll food they want.
