I got Trolled and Spammed - We need to do something about this as it is getting quite out of hand...

I spoke to someone last night who researched and asked a number of questions on the business forum about bringing part of their business to a DR ftz. He mentioned that he received a number of trolling private mails and e-mails after his request for information - selling unnecessary services obviously at ludicrous prices. These are the worst kind of trolls and I do not think this is cool.

What can we do about trolls on the board?

And then, lo and behold, this morning I got spam from a troll -

You sir/madam, who sent me the following mail, are a troll. I don't like you and I don't like what you are doing. In addition, your spam mail is stupid. In addition, it responds to an old thread. In addition, your spam mail has nothing to do with the topic of the thread. So, why don't you go back to school or something.

"Hello Chris,

Disable PM and e-mail communication as a user option, but you can't prevent people, trolls or otherwise from reading things and sending you unwanted messages. It's the internet and this and SPAM are ubiquitous.

Please send me these PM's and Emails and I will remove their access.

If they continue, I will shame them on DR1 for all to see.

Until I have proof, I cannot do anything.
