Proverbs 26:4 - Do not answer a fool according to his folly, Lest you also be like him.
2. Do not demand an apology for bad behavior from a blog troll. This tactic generally encourages the blog troll to dig in and to defend the righteousness of his cause all the more. This leads to more rude and caustic commentary, and the cycle starts all over again.
Proverbs 12:15 - The way of a fool is right in his own eyes.
3. Do not attempt to correct or to rebuke the blog troll in the comments thread or in any other public forum. That only leads to more nasty conflict. If you feel that you have been wronged, then the private confrontation enjoined in Matthew 18:15 is probably the best way forward. Try to get the blog trolls e-mail address, and resolve the matter there.
Proverbs 17:10 A rebuke goes deeper into one who has understanding Than a hundred blows into a fool.
Proverbs 27:22 - Though you grind a fool in a mortar, grinding him like grain with a pestle, you will not remove his folly from him.
Matthew 18:15 - And if your brother sins, go and reprove him in private; if he listens to you, you have won your brother.
4. Do not acknowledge the comments of an unrepentant blog troll. If the blog troll is unresponsive to your private efforts to get him to play nice, then you should ignore his comments thence forward. Once again, do not feed a blog troll. It only makes him bigger. If everyone will simply pay no attention to blog troll comments, then the blog troll will eventually go away.
