Silencing Tactics 1. The shout down---multiple posts aggressively addressed to one person.

2. The insult --a limited number of posts that simply draw the persons qualifications into such question that the individual is so offended they simply say.....I don't have time for this.

3. The harassment--someone is hounded on multiple threads by a single poster or a group. I'm sure others have witnessed other types of aggressive behavior.

And again, a mob tactic, is more a natural event than it is a planned procedure. If you threaten peoples dreams you are going to get a wide assortment of reactions which can combine to appear as one of the tactics, or a mixture of them. And how much you threaten their dream is likely to effect the intensity of the response.
