I really hate to say this as I know it doesn't really help, but I know that two of our moderators, members of a team which I generally support, are very close to at least two of the worst trolls on the board. That's fine, except when those of us who are self-evidently far lesser trolls than the two people I'm referring to, are accused of being trolls by at least one of those self-same mods. I do have a habit of naming names rather than bottling things by using silly and pusillanimous expressions such as "usual suspects," etc., but on this occasion I'll refrain from doing that. I would call for a bit more honesty, consistency and even-handedness from some of the mods. It's a tough job, it's unpaid, you have your own stances on issues and you can't please everybody, and if, on occasion you're not seen to be intervening when it looks like you should be doing, well we all know how many bloody threads there are here...
