True this just helps with the whackamole Troll whom uses a variety of methods like temp email. In our instance at one time he was creating 10 to 20 accounts a week through vpns. We have gotten quite adept at spotting his sock accounts.

Many types of Trolls and Spammers. More methods known the better to combat. However a determined enough user really can’t be kept out of a publically accessed site.
