Goading and group pile ons

I would be grateful if you could confirm what measures you take to deal with goady posters and pile on attacks. I am seeing this on here every day and nothing is being done about it. I have sent you two emails.

Having just done a v quick advanced search and see the thread title where OP is posting a lot, I would just like to add that political threads probably should expect very robust debate.

If I make a post in certain threads, I can get the same posters appearing at the same time. My username is also on a Reddit thread about trolls.

A thread about slating MN moderation, BTW. I have constantly reported troll hunting on here and those posts fet removed.

It is probably sometimes hard for MN to distinguish a 'pile on' from 100 individuals all expressing the same point of view.
Though I agree if the OP is in distress about something then 100 people all saying 'you were stupid to allow X in the first place' or whatever is unhelpful and counter productive.
Are you reporting the actual threads when you see them?

Well, being goady is usually a reason for deletion, as would be an attack.

Have you used the report button?

I would be reporting a lot and I've no faith since I am the the one who has just received a warning. In case my account gets deleted, I'm recording what's going in - on this thread.
