I was instantly reminded of a quote from the movie "Aliens"...

"Take off, nuke the entire site from orbit. Only way to be sure."

But then, considering my stellar attempt at civility on the last page... perhaps not.

I still like the japanese term:

Mokusatsu: To kill with silence.

I think it's important to remember that someone who disagrees with us or has a different opinion isn't a troll.

Trolling is personal attacks. Sometimes people yell 'TROLL" when no personal attack was made. When that happens, the accuser becomes the troll and it goes downhill from there.

I'd beware more of hobbits and leprechauns.

You can't trust those that have rings or pots of gold. ;)

What I've used to deal whit attackers and provocateurs is I don't answer them back on their attacks and negativity. If I answer it only means there will be more responses and so it continues if I would keep answering.

Someone has to stop.

I appeared here in not my intended way I would have liked. I took a risk, and it was a real risk looking at the responses I've gotten by some members in the threads.

Never have I been treated this way elsewhere than here! Not in real life nor internet. Damn my 6 months army conscription time was better!

In real life few people have tried to bully me a few times. But I won't allow them by not responding to their provocation. If they really try something I go back against them. I have nothing to gain from them or their behaviour and won't accept it either.

WE are eachother people.

And the sooner WE realize this the better off WE will all be.

The heart of this thread has alot to do with what has become of our current paradigm.

Actually the term troll, online comes from the fishing terms...trolling...so anyone that "baits" others with insults or any other tactic...would be considered a troll

this is true, but if you do not like what you are thinking, what do you do ?

I change my thoughts so I refuse to listen to someone that seems to want to put a type of "threat" towards me or anyone else.
