You think Toast troll threads are rare? Imagine having *my name*. How often does some troll dedicate a thread to me? Let me assure you that this is not very often at all.
Still, it seems you've missed a great opportunity D:

I don't even know how one would go about creating a Blazinghand troll thread. Maybe something about lighting your hand on fire? Idk.

I wish more mods would be like R1ch. He's never afraid the ban the sh*t out of someone for f*cking with Tech Support or giving bad advice.
Gogo R1ch! One day we will succeed and fix Tech Support, one day....

I had a thought and see two possible outcomes:
Tech Support is saved..
or
There are no survivors..
What event could bring annihilation or salvation?
JingleHell becoming a banling XD

For jinglehell, I would recommend the same as I would with IdrA. I doubt that JingleHell would be a very good all-around banling, but if we limited him to simply posting in the Tech Support forum (aka the reverse-techsupport-ban-maneuvre), he could be an excellent banling there.

Reminds me of a famous R1CH quote:
[12:15] @R1CH: i optimized the shit out of TL over the last few months
[12:15] @R1CH: without it im sure the flood of beta shit would be like how TL was during TSL 1 casts
[12:15] @R1CH: i almost want to undo it
[12:15] @R1CH: just so people stop flooding stupid shit
[12:16] @R1CH: we really need to implement that posts per day for new users thing
[12:16] @The-Winner: or a bot which bans shitty posters
[12:17] @R1CH: i tried that
[12:17] @R1CH: it classified everyone as a shitty poster
[12:17] @R1CH: its like santa from futurama

JingleHell being a banling is like playing Bawble Pawp at a funeral. It'd be awesome but it's not working out.
Much love JingleHell all in good fun.

Bubble Pop would work out at a funeral if the video was accompanying it. At the very least it would distract from the tragedy and bring everyone's mood up a bit.
IdrA and jinglehell for next two staff members, imo.

I'd be okay with this 
One of the biggest problems is that people post threads asking questions for which there is tons of information. When see all of the "What Video Card Should I Get?" and similar threads, it makes me cringe knowing that there is a 721 page thread filled with disscussion and advice about all kinds of hardware and configurations (edit: not to mention the other big PC build thread). There have been plenty other threads to.
Anywhere else on the forum this would result in a warning/ban and close. Not sure why it's acceptable in Tech Support.
The PC resource build thread is also watched by some good posters like SkyR, nam nam, shinkyo, and a few others who are likely to catch bad or incorrect advice. New threads often get a quick flood of 10 suggestions then end up falling to page 2, meaning medeocre advice may not be caught. While the OP maybe deserves the bad advice, someone searching the forum for info may end up reading it.
tldr: ban more peeps in Tech Support please

(mind you I have taken Tech Support off my left side bar as I only go there when I need to learn something and can offer little to no assistance)
To be fair, my own personal experience is the following:
Look for advice on a mechanical keyboard. Find 50 pages of information, much of it conflicting or personal opinions and the only super useful parts being links to other websites with guides!
I still don't know entirely how one would replace a switch for a shorted out B key and I'd like to give my old keyboard to charity if I could repair it first..
^_^
Anyway ahhh tech support- it's one of those subjects where desperate people come in mass when they don't have any where else to turn! It is grating to deal with people that don't search or ask inane questions but all the same many people are just lost and don't know how to ask for the information they need to know.
Heh, there needs to be a Tech Support Ten Commandments
+ Show Spoiler [Image to set the mood] +
LOL YEAH NYOVNE YOU SHIT ON THAT GUY GOOD.
But seriously whoa that's one of the most thought out ban reasons I've read.

There is a guidelines thread, SkyR just wrote a new version of it.
Part of this I think is due to the lackluster OPs. Too many major threads have evolved from OPs consisting of a three line question.
A perfect example is this thread: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=126262
However there is still some really good disscussion and opinions in there if you take the time to read through. Too many people want instant gratification and have the answer to their question presented on a silver platter. Normally I wouldn't care if these lazy people don't get answers, but I worry about the guys actually using the search function who finds 10,000 threads on a single topic each filled with questionable advice and information.
