Re: Trolls

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Might I make a teeny tiny Texas suggestion?

If you feel obligated to answer a troll, could you private reply to them???

I sit on my hands trying not to send a nasty snarky reply, and have been mostly winning,

But boy are these NPC derpaholic troll doomsday posts a bummer.

And if you must reply, make it private so

1. They cannot gloat on the open thread.
2. They lose the tingly feeling of a FReeQ reply in public.
3. Maybe they will go away because

4. They do not Trust the Plan, whether it is Trump’s, Q’s or God’s.

Good wins in the end, maybe then these troll icks will say Thank Q.

I agree but why even PM them? There is no schooling or educating them.

Replying to them is akin to “oh no, there’s a spot fire, let me put it out with this bit of gasoline”.

IMHO a good way to refute their crap is to comment but don’t add their name, and state the facts or whatever, so lurkers won’t be taken in by anything they spew.

Re: Trolls

HEAR!!! HEAR!!! GREAT advice from TheTexasMom I just hope and pray people will do what you said. I don’t care how clever they think they are, when Freepers answer a troll, they just add to everybody’s aggravation. Ignore them, or private reply to them...so simple and effective

There's just something more ominous and threatening about getting a nastygram in your messages... I prefer (well, before I had to retire St. Felicia) to smack the trolls around in public.

I must say that Bagster does an awesome job, and it seems to be working...but dayammm I miss feeding the trolls...and Jaqui Noir I'm talking about you!
