    Not too bad, aside from small logic errors:
    foreach my $offence(my @website)
    You are declaring @website everytime the loops starts, thus it will always be empty, and no trolls will ever be warned...that is not good.
    warn(my $troll);
    Same type of thing here. You declare $troll inside the expression. The Troll variable is empty and so the warn function warns no one. The trolls run free once more.
    until my $banned eq "true";
    $banned will never be true this way. The trolls shall live on...and on and on and on. See above for why. I'm feeling very redundant right now.

    This @ISA my cool %SIG
      And aside from the fact that it won't do anything but print what we all know - admins control it all. :-p

      Run it and see.
      If i were being classy i'd say it was a poem about the impotence of the underlings.

    hahaha :). "use Extreme::Violence" :). That's great :). That might not work in the real world, but it would be nice to have available for spam filters and popup blockers :).
