I am mentally ill and have to stay away from some forums. They are not moderated and when someone finds out I am mentally ill they call me names and troll me. I would try to report the abuse and nothing is done. I would try and troll back. It is very unhealthy and these sort of environments just socially conduction people into becoming trolls.
Hacker News is different were the users mod posts and comments and flag them for administrators that do a good job at moderating. I don't have the same problems here that I have on other sites.
If someone is being a troll a dick or a jerk, moderate their comments and posts, and let them know why you are moderating them. Ban then if you have to.
