My experience with the FreeNode IRC network has been pretty troll-free.

They could do even better by requiring everyone to register.

In my experience, trolling on IRC is mostly a thing of the past.

Many channels have this. For example, a lot of the GNU and FSF channels do this so we can keep them relatively spam and troll free.
