perhaps folks misunderstand when someone says dont feed the trolls. they dont mean, haha, you go get em. you tell that troll. they mean DONT FEED THE TROLLS. put another way, if you think a post is off topic, meaningless, or is specifically non-constructive, regardless of who wrote it, JUST DONT RESPOND TO IT. this means that the empty post WONT get double attention. if you follow this simple rule, the world is better for everyone. let me give you a specific example: PLEASE STOP TALKING TO LUMIAMAN ON THREADS NOT ABOUT WINDOWS PHONE. his views may or may not be your own, and there is no problem with that. his views, however, are EVERYWHERE, they are always in the same vein, and they ALWAYS incite argument. go argue with him on a thread that is about what he's arguing about. there are filters that let us ignore people who frequently post only empty vitriol. there are no filters that let us ignore you responding to them.
