How to stop responding to trolls.

1) Never use the name of a troll who isn't
actively trolling. "Naming summons."

2) Never respond to a troll message directed
at someone else. It is like butting in to a
conversation between two assholes to inform
them that you, too, are an asshole, and you
think that they are assholes. They already
know.

3) Fly-by trolls never respond to anything
you say anyway, so why bother?

4) Cascading is the USENET version of Bukakke.
The cascaders are the Bukakke queens. Posting
to a cascade is like having a tablespoon of warm
spooge spooged on your face.

5) Hysterical trolls need meds. You can't talk
them down. When they take their meds, they stop
posting. It's inhumane to agitate the mentally
imbalanced.

6) If you are going to killfile a troll, just
do it. Don't talk about it. It just agitates
the troll to attack everybody else.
