L (learner) icon for forum posts

Not sure if this has been suggested before, but would the L icon in forums identify potential troll posts (ie, for regular users who set up new accounts)?

    They are easy to tell.

      True, probably just an easier way to identify as a first glance.

  • It's part of the fun identifying these posts :D

      It's coming up to your 10 year anniversary, you have to post something soon!

  • Good idea OP. Similar options have been suggested in the past but came to nothing.

    Most times troll posts are fairly easy to spot, trolling used to be a fine art, but nowadays are just mainly crude TL:DR attempts by 1 post trollers who rarely follow up with a second post.

  • I'm all for it, makes it easier to spot those that make duplicate accounts.

  • Doesn't have to be your first time to be a troll.
