Avoiding the flames

The flamers are just looking for attention. My new personal policy is that even if there is an outrageous post, I am not going to reply.

Actually, I have learned a few names to avoid at this stage. I have not blocked them, but if their name appears more than 2 times in a thread, I automatically skip the rest of the thread.

If we ignore the trolls and flamers, all the fun goes away and maybe they will go away too. Anybody else agree?

Regards,

I totally agree!!! Hopefully he'll get the hint and leave like the rest of the trouble makers did so we can all get back to talking songwriting.

I've made this post before...

There is an anti-troll faq at:
http://www.hyphenologist.co.uk/killfile/ anti_troll_faq.htm

This could be condensed into the more general statement-

'Please do not feed the trolls'

Otherwise said, ignore them and they'll go away.

Hmm... I'm guess you mean the fun for *them*.

I think this is from Kurt Vonnegut.

'We may not all love each other, but we can at least be polite.'

Works for me.
