Anti-troll 101

Dear members:

These are not cyber-war tactics ()…these are just common sense/courtesy/decency type tactics that if properly deployed could do this forum a world of good:

When a troll starts a thread:

IGNORE IT. Don’t respond…it just PERPETUATES the thread no matter how good your intentions because you bring the ‘troll’ thread back up where it certainly doesn’t belong.

REPORT it: Rather than responding you can right click on the ‘mother thread’ link and save the link and forward it to an Administrator whom can remove the link if it’s repugnant or rude etc.


REMEMBER: A troll wants attention…ignore him…and he leaves…keep giving him a trail of crumbs and he’ll follow.

Follow?

(((HUGS)))

Good point. But on average methinks most trolls are male.

All trolls are bad trolls. Let's face it. Hiding behind a 'facade' to just be an ass is the biggest cowardice type bs there is. hmp!

Go placidly amid the noise and haste, & remember what peace there may be in silence.

As far as possible be on good terms with all persons. Speak your truth quietly & clearly; and listen to others, even the dull and ignorant; they too have their story.

/me often writes up angry replies on her 'Word' scratchboard to get her 'angry feelings' out and then takes a few breathers and is glad she didn't spew.

Kosati: "I try to practice the teachings of Anti-troll 101 ........... I sometimes type out what I would like to say, and hit the Return to Message Board.... "

*sighs* I can't count the number of times I've done that same thing. Typed out long winded messages of what I really /want/ to say - but then I remember certain things, and just move on.
