Maybe the volume of negative druggie/junkie comments put them off?

Surely you are not suggesting this was a wind-up to get people name calling and then banned

If it was, it nearly worked - some people got quite worked up about it!

If it is a troll, I cannot understand what they get out of it... Surely there are better, more fulfilling things they can be spending their time on?

I think this sort of thing is where the trolls get their enjoyment:

Turning generally good folk against each other on overly controversial topics like this one. They light the blue touch paper and retreat to a safe distance...

Interesting Wiki entry ...
---------------------
In general, conventional wisdom advises users to avoid feeding trolls, and to ignore temptations to respond. Responding to a troll inevitably drives discussion off-topic, to the dismay of bystanders, and supplies the troll with the craved attention. When trollhunters pounce on the trolls, ignorers reply with: "YHBT. YHL. HAND.," or "You have been trolled. You have lost. Have a nice day." However, since trollbaiters (like trolls) are often conflict-seekers themselves, the loss usually is not on the part of the trollhunter; rather, the losers are the other forum-users who would have preferred that the conflict did not emerge at all.
-----------------------
I liked the "ignorers reply with ..." bit.

Are they strictly ignorers though, if they are replying?

I wonder how many of the high and mighty lot on this thread have never smoked a joint or taken an ekky years ago, I know I have done a bit in my younger days, I have also sniffed a fair bit of charlie. I never got caught and am now in Australia, I very rarely smoke dope nowadays but my point is if this girl had not been caught and had applied she would still be the same person but would have no worries for getting here to Australia.
Good luck to you and the misses.
