    Thanks, I didn’t realize that worked here. But I meant tagging a user as awesome or a troll or whatever. That way, when you kind of remember seeing the name and they seem like they’re trolling, I can tell right away if I’ve had previous interactions with them. RES was awesome for that.

      Ah that makes sense. That would be nifty. Because my block list these days is based on “this person said fucked up shit and i vaguely remember them saying more fucked up shit a while ago but cant fully remember if its them”

  Sorry I see you replied before I edited my comment. Don’t feel forced as it isn’t that important but if you have the original study handy I’d appreciate a link because it sounds interesting.

    That was years ago. I’m sure I saved it on reddit, but I haven’t been back there since I switched. Sorry about that. It was a real study though, they were trying to figure out all of he social media trolling from Cambridge Analytica and all that. It might have been even earlier.
