It doesn't perfectly solve the problem of wading through threads that have been spoiled by a troll like some recently, but there is an ignore list in the Control Panel so we can at least filter specific users out.
Sadly, that doesn't repair the misinformation, lame attempts at validation, and just plain childish behavior that trolls are known for. It is an option though to avoid seeing their spew and of course the ripples(logical counter posts) are still there which I don't mind.
Glad you brought this up Karl, I didn't realize we had ignore lists until a few minutes ago. I like the idea of adding an icon to specific threads too. I appreciate the efforts of those who take the time to correct the misinformation. Feeding trolls is sometimes unavoidable(like when the alternative is tolerating lies).
