>me: climbing on soapbox
It seems you can't go more than fifteen replies without sombody starting
a flame war. God forbid a troll posts something, within a week you have
a thread 1200 replies long, none of it usefull to anyone except the
troll who once again has sopped the fools into his web. This despite the
fact that "everyone" says "just ignore it, he'll go away". But no body
does. And he keep winning.
I pity the newbie that comes here for the first time, posts an inoocent
question in the hopes of some friendly advice, only to discover a few
days later he has started a war!
I'm able to ignore these, if I see insults being thrown I simply skip to
the next reply in the hopes of finding something usefull. No temptation,
no sin. why can't you? My NG reader doesn't collapse threads (one of
it's shortomings), which meand I haf to plow through thousands of
replies in a ruined thread to get to the next topic. That's the main
reason for my rant.
Strangly enough, someone posts spam and that DOES get ignored. Two
replies, max, and it sinks into oblivion.
