question
Everything I have learned in my close to 15 years frequenting nntp
servers has taught me that rule #1 in handling trolls is to ignore them. Deny them an audience, and they eventually go away. In my experience, this works in almost every case. They will usually simply seek another audience, of course. However, in the 3 or 4 months since I subbed to rec.ponds due to my budding interest in building a pond in my large back yard and found this maelstrom of flamebait, I have seen nothing but continual antagonism and feeding of the troll(s) in this group. May I ask why? And before replying, recall that I have been around ng's for a while, and my flameproof suit is heavily upgraded. g -- bv |

Keep your finger on your killfilter button. Not much else to do. Maybe after another 100 or so kill files I will be receiving only a few off topic posts. Larry |

Larry There is also the problem with trolls impersonating legitimate posters to ad to the confusion and drive off the legitimate posters. This has been going on for months. It's clear there are four trolls on this group wanting total control. If everyone would killfile and completely ignore these people and the their boorish threads, work around them so to speak, the group can survive. However, they are allowing the few to ruin the group for many by giving them total power. They do this by posting infrequently or not at all. |

There is an ongoing feud, I think, but with all the nym shifting here's my latest theory: it is one person with multiple personalities attacking each other, and none of those personalities will stop the feeding, they can't. We can only hope for spontaneous combustion. ;o) ~ jan ~ jan/WA Zone 7a |

And you yourself have compounded the problem with useless
crossposting. The original trolls are not the problem, it's the people who rise to the bait. -- ¼á wrote in message oups.com... Koi-Lo wrote: "~ jan jjspond" wrote in message ...

If you would learn to read headers Jan, you would see there are FOUR
different people involved and several using remailers in one form or another. Here, this may help you. Reading Headers: http://tinyurl.com/amm9s And this from the person who said they had posted on topic for the last... I don't know how long? Oh wait, that was you, playing a guy named Mr. Paul, or wait, could have been a personality you're not even aware of, I've heard that happens? original post, Who's to say this one person... "did I say it was YOU?" No, but we're so defensive WE just ASS U ME.... But I digress... who's to say this one person, with multiple personalities doesn't have multiple accounts and multiple computers for each personality, huh? I've been trying to stay neutral, but apparently my side has been picked for me. As far as reading headers, GET A LIFE! Only reason I see any of your posts is because someone carries it over. So I could careless about reading headers. Hop I gave you a thrill that you drew me out, woo hoo. Enough said. ~ j ~ jan/WA Zone 7a |

Well snoozes posts or any others with the exception of "your" multiple
redundant posts to layout and explain everything, or call attention to headers and such, that gets posted to try and defend your actions by you, certainly outweight all those other posts not made by you and your army of sock puppets and believers.........Your like a plague and that plague needs to have a medication applied to it to make it go away.............

Mr.paul & Loupa Lu = Except these two don't have an established history of posting here, except to defend Carol, guess who it really is? Good point, exactly!!!! She's got her own little world going with all her multiple personalities, no wonder there is no room, or compassion, for anyone outside her little domain, we're all just irritants to her. Sad. Probably why she has all those kiddy pools, one for each personality. ~ jan/WA Zone 7a |
