-- I do not see trolls as "opponents" they are irritants at best. --

They are opponents of keeping the thread "clean," but I'd let them buy me dinner.

-- My post was a direct reply to the idea that it is our responsibility to ignore, rather than the trolls responsibility to stay away from threads they don't like. --

Everybody is responsible. Playing games with shifting it around is just more noise. Lots of noise of FR. This is a pretty stupid place, IMO. But I do love it. Big hearts for the most part, leans the political way I do, so I chip in (mostly remarks) from time to time. Would be much easier to just lurk.

Lurking is easy. It’s like a congressman being absent on the day of the big vote.

Don’t get me wrong, I’m with you, much easier to lurk. But, sometimes, I feel a bit like Popeye: “that’s all I can stand and I can’t stand no more”, and I say something.

Then, back to lurk mode, but everyone knows where I stand.
