One of the boards I visit has a feature where the person who starts the thread can ban trolls from that thread. I wish FR did. Or an ignore feature.
I have quit reading the Q posts past the first few because I don’t have the patience or the time to wade through all of the troll posts. They seem to seek out the Q threads and fill them with arguments. Talk about a waste of bandwidth.
Great points. Agreed. Thanks.
One of the main purposes of these kinds of trolls is to stop the discussion, make it all about “THEM” to drive people away from reading the actual topic discussion, and maybe even get so much contention going that people get banned, or the thread shut down.
The best way, or only way, to stop this is to STOP REPLYING TO THOSE WHOSE SOLE PURPOSE IS TO DISRUPT THE THREAD.
If NO ONE REPLIES TO THEM they will eventually stop.
