OT: Reporting racist trolls

You see this racist on every board it seems. This troll has got some sort of a racial issue that causes him/her to post his hateful spew constantly.

Click "flag post" then "report post" at the upper right side of the post (next to the reply button). BUT, you have to scroll down to the very bottom to click "submit report" otherwise it'll do no good.

The world is full of racists trolls but we can clean up IMDB by reporting them all.

Is very bad to steal Jobu's rum. Is very bad.

I see the post was removed, and since it takes more than just one flagging, someone else helped out. Thanks.

If we do this every time this North Korean troll posts, he'll get tired and stop.

I've reported some that I see. But this place has a lot of trolls. I think I may have seen the one you're talking about, but not for several days.

Some trolls are just regular people who pull other people's chains just for a laugh, but then there are others who seem truly mentally disturbed.

Do you all peek out between your window blinds and report people who water their lawn on the wrong day? You sound like Hitler Youth ratting out neighbors.

Settle down Beavis. He's gone now (fortunately), but the troll in question was posting these long winded racist political manifestos about the evils of South Korea and the government, listing names of South Korean government officials and prominent families no one here knew or cared about. The troll was either Chinese or North Korean (do they have internet there?). BTW, it was on the old IMDB boards. I haven't seen him here.

In any case, the political racist manifestos had *nothing* whatsoever to do with any film board they were posted in. That would be like me posting a long-winded Brexit argument in My Cousin Vinny. He posted that same South Korea bashing post here in The Hunt for Red October.

I mean, a good troll at least finds something to tie their spew in to any film, but these were merely copied and pasted to hundreds of movie boards, none of them having to do with movies, TV, or entertainment in general at all.
