What happens to story telling trolls rather than goady fucker trolls?

I keep spotting the kind of trolls who create a story for themselves and then post several threads that generate a lot of replies helping them (rather than a troll who tries to create a bunfight). Do these trolls posts get deleted when MNHQ agree its a troll or are they allowed to stand because they aren't particularly goady? I report them but don't hear back on some of them to confirm if it was a troll or not so wasn't sure.

Oh, and on one I was told it was dealt with but the threads are still there. Does this mean they were banned and posts left to stand? Or that I was wrong? Just curious because their post is a bit creepy to leave up if it was a troll.

There are lots of these in my opinion - not all that will have been called as trolls.

It would be nice if all of their posts would go up in smoke.

I agree or marked so that people know that it was a troll even if its not been deleted.

That's true. I usually only report when that happens if they've posted a controversial thread as well.

I probably report loads of real people and MNHQ are like JUST FUCK OFF!

Oh I feel bad now. I bet I waste loads of MNHQ time and these poor innocent none trolls :'(
