We take turns admonishing others not to feed the trolls and turn around and feed the trolls ourselves anyway, the ones that REALLY get under our skin.

Oh, I know. It's SO tempting.

I look at it like this. If I can resist, anybody can resist. I am a famous troll fighter from way back. Undefeated and immortal. I would make short work of these nobs if I chose to. But then the thread becomes a troll battlefield and they have won.

The singular responses add up. I urge ignoration as a strategy. Look at their posts, chuckle, shake your head, and move on to the real convo.

We don't have time for troll crushing.

I'm not trying to be the boss of anybody, just trying to be strategical is all.
