    Please don't feed the Trolls

    There are a couple of posts here that were obviously written by bitter social misfits. Ignore them. They cannot be reasoned with nor will feeding their ignorance help this community. It will invite others to come here and do the same.

    Just my thoughts. I have seen the damage a few trolls can do to a community.

    Hey Mark,

    One of the things I like about TeacherFocus is that those trying to stir up trouble can and will be banned and if the posts get out of hand, they'll be deleted.

    bitter social misfits, eh? you better believe it. in a society where your social status is determined by how well you follow orders and buy "cool" stuff you don't need while half the world starves, then i AM a misfit and proud of it. bitter? there's no reason not to be.

    p.s. if you delete our posts simply because you don't agree with us, it just confirms everything i've ever said about you.

    Should I introduce him to the "other" place where his ahem (comments) will be more accepting and let him have his jollies there? :twisted:

    oh, go for it pogo!

    and rebelnerd -- how did you move from my saying that posts that get out of hand will be deleted to posts we don't agree with will be deleted? You just proved that you haven't read too much and too far and too deep on this board.

    I rather felt like it was one of those "teachable moments".....

    I didn't bother to read after the tone of the first post I read.

    I get enough trolls at the other place. :wink:
