penned the following well considered
thoughts to the readers of rec.boats:

A few folks who left for
a while don't know how good it is here when we don't allow ourselves
to get involved with the trolls. Answering them so they can respond is
all they are interested in.. The agreement was working well until less
frequent visitors who were not aware of it began addressing them
again, giving them a platform.

You can't "give them a platform," you can, however, deny them a
platform by refusing to respond to insulting responses. Probably, the
worst thing that I've seen is a response that says you are not
responding... those clearly show who can let it go and who can't.

It wasn't "good" here, it was just dead.... except for the USENET
equivalent of CB chatter.

It's still dead, and the ones who whine the most here are the ones who
still rarely if ever contribute anything on topic.
