Trolls - OT but Germane to Advice on Studio Size Flap
I have been informed of a message-board nuisance called a troll. As it
was explained to me, they are called trolls for two reasons: 1. They troll message boards making nasty comments in order to start an argument, and 2. They are ugly little devils! I am assured that if you don't feed them (i.e. answer their vituperation in kind), they will go away. Jan C. P.S. Yeah, I know, I fell for his bait once myself. That's how I learned about Trolls. P.P.S. I like the two life-rules thing! I've got my WD-40 and duct tape at the ready! |

He is only baiting us and it is taking away from our discussions. Ignore him and he will likely find another newgroup with which to amuse himself Him ........ or Her .......... just a thought ! |

Thanks for the Troll info.....I'm a real newbie on newsgroups so it's news

Him ........ or Her .......... just a thought ! It! Has got to be an IT. Trolls have no gender, nor do they need any, being too ugly to find anything to mate with anyhow :) Funny, but when I wrote my original post I had put IT and then changed it to him, thinking I was specifically targeting our recent troll - BOB. IT does seem much more appropriate =-) |
