The only difference is, trolls are getting aggressive right now because of what they have found on the account of Lauda.
Indeed. I've found accounts that were recently active just because of the Lauda's plagiarism issue. List below are the possible alt accounts of someone whom is really trying hard to be heard:
A THREAD:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=2789386;sa=showPosts- Only has 10 posts, in which 6 of them are just because of the Lauda's issue, had already been received negative feedback that is all were right.
I would add users soon whom have seems to be just an alt account.
Those user's I've mentioned was not on purpose nor to defend Lauda. It is indeed a good thing that they've been persuading the ban of Lauda, yet with those desperate actions, I don't think the issue is simply "only based on facts and rules". As what nullius said:
It neither shocks me nor surprises me to see this level of rank hypocrisy from the majority of those who are calling for Lauda to be burnt. So many of the persons who regularly defend plagiarism and other wrongdoing, and who falsely accuse Lauda of abusing the rules for personal vendettas, are crawling out of the woodwork to call for the strictest punishment—obviously, based on personal vendettas. As I said: I am not surprised.
And therefore, even a normal user would simply understand, that this issue also has a subjective reasons by the opposing side. I think the best way to end the drama is to lock the threads that regards with the issue, and simply let theymos and other Admin to handle the rest. Not to cover up the issue nor prolong it, but to somehow lessen the fire caused by users whom make alt account just for the issue, yet opinions is at their bottom-line and just the same. Cause sooner and later, the desperate would never be tired of their actions as long as they didn't get what they want.
