1. Don't reply. Ever. Just gets them all excited.
2. Filter the poster, or just delete the headers.
Flonkers, besides being pussies, are lazy. They nearly always use the
same handle. Ego thing. Easy to just delete, whether you use a
filter or not. With a newsreader anyway. Don't know about google.
Once you filter the main assholes, and occasionally add new ones, they
simply disappear from view.
I read ASA, and disagree with salty about what killed that group.
Wasn't flonkers, it was the group members themselves.
The flonkers were easily ignored, as I said above.
Probably got old and quit sailing, so they just started farting all
the time, as oldsters are wont to do.
Same thing here.
If you followed ASA, it was mostly as a lurker. You didn't
participate. You killed it.
Sure I participated. But like here, not in the type of petty
name-calling threads you enjoy. Mostly
I guess you missed the weeks of floods? Bet you couldn't filter those!
