[I posted this in the Flameboard because trolling happens more frequently here than elsewhere in these forums. The views expressed do not necessarily reflect those of the management.

When someone posts something calculated to set you off, do not respond. The fact that someone is trying to piss you off indicates that they are starved for attention and don't care if it is good attention or bad.

Ignore them and they will eventually tire of trying to tick you off and go somewhere else to play that game. Negative feedback works.

I think I respoinded suitably to that Troll's thread, I don't think I had any Troll Food with me.

It's like laughing at the kid who says assinine things during class. Encourage him, and he'll continue.

I bet when Neanderthal kids would make a snowman, someone would
always end up saying "Don't forget the big heavy eyebrows." Then they would all get embarrassed because they remembered they had the big hunky eyebrows too, and then they would get mad and eat the snowman.

I'd say this guy "opened his mouth and removed all doubt," eh, U-M?

Kicking troll ass is much better than feeding them, IMHO.

If he tries another stunt like that again, he won't be around to cause a third.
