DESCRIPTION:

troll.module provides troll management tools for community sites including:
- user tracking by ip address
- bans IP addresses forever or for set duration, by ban I mean redirect, and by redirect I mean complete site blocking not just account creation and login
- advanced user account searching
- easy user blocking by role
- punish visitors listed in blacklists such as SPEWS.org and okean.com. Note IP banning/blocking differs from blacklisting.
