Over two decades in the IETF certainly taught me that.  But it also  
taught me that often the judgement between constructive and  
disruptive was subjective and a matter of 'political' perspective.   
It also taught me that unless there are formal processes and  
procedures as well as levels of appeal, the solution is often far  
worse then the infraction.

Unfortunately the time spent developing such procedures is also often  
far more destructive and time consuming then just learning to ignore  
the trolls.
