And I had been thinking that the trolls WEREN’T around and wondering how ransomnote had accomplished that.

I've noticed the hard core trolls and the amateurs swarm a post like locusts when it is first posted and on the front page. The amateurs usually do a drive by and are gone, unless engaged. The professionals tend to stick around longer and DEFINITELY stay while engaged. After a while, if ignored, they lose interest and move along.

Take a look at the "rogue" Q threads out there. It's a feeding frenzy. We are doing fine on this thread. As little engagement as possible. Save your ammo for the "rogue" threads.

A troll hunter's perspective.

I’m not troll answering, so ammo is still in my Davy Crockett rifle. Just peeking out from behind protective cover and saying, “Not me!” I haven’t looked at any rogue Q threads as this one is so nice and comfy. And filling up with REALLY good analysis and observations. I EVEN got husband to read it!

A Troll Hunter with good instincts I think! :)

Save your ammo for the "rogue" threads.

Um, Baggums: are you suggesting that people should 'troll' the other Q threads?

It's quite possible that some people have just gotten bored with 'your' threads, and are finding other threads much more info-intensive. ('Rogue thread' sounds like a kind of elitist disparagement, to me...)
