Death by Mod

In a discussion or debate forum, the tactic of breaking rules unrelated to the discussion at hand in order to invoke wrath of the moderators, with the resulting suspension/ban saving one from the embarrassment of having to carry on after having one's arguments completely dismantled. Also applies to trolls, as a means to an exit.

It looks like he's gonna choose Death by Mod, rather than trying to get out of that hole he has dug for himself.
