I for one would prefer if you ALL
a) Totally ignored anyone posting offensive posts and
b) Stopped discussing it at length.

Thanks M

A case of bitting your lip and counting to ten!?

What was the answer we ALL gave................

I agree!

>>>>May I place a request please?

Many months ago there were a group of us posting on this forum who had experienced a similar occurrence as the recent 'objectionable explosion' elsewhere and we agreed we wouldn't let it happen on this site.

Well it has happened and has been dealt with much too late and certainly less than effectively by both fellow posters and the site management.

Fellow posters please do not add fuel to the fire of any undesirable post by replying to it as you only fan said fire. So a little more self discipline please.

Wistow, an earlier and more positive approach would be appreciated by myself and I am sure by others using this site. Please take a more positive stance more speedily in the future.

(I do appreciate the reasons for your initial delays this time)

For Wistows benefit will all those who post here and agree with me say so. A simple "I agree" would inevitably be preferable to a long response.<<<<<

Great site, pi55ed off, I personally think youre all being too soft, you need a strategy to beat this troll thing.

Anyone wants to talk to me my spare email is

brianarmstrong351@hotmail.co.uk

ronny, write to it and I'll put you straight in the junk email folder you psychotic little pr1ck.

Wistow, please remove my ID from this forum. Thanks.

Goodbye friends.

Get a life trolls.

Ignore his request, please Wistow! Finn, I hate skirting around dog mess on the pavement, but I'm not about to start walking in the road, instead. Without proactive lads like yourself, forums will flounder - hang around!

ATB - Alan.

Alan - well said. Finn - I ask again - please re-consider.

Finn, I understand exactly how you feel as I felt the very same a couple of weeks ago. However, I sat down and gave it some thought before thinking “Bolliulerix” to the eejits, and resumed posting.

This site is quiet compared to some of the more populated ones, but it does have a deep wealth of knowledge.

G.M.

That's genuinely sound advice! Sadly, the internet's given rise to trolls, but we can't let them see us off. They're now just another one of life's little nasties, that you must deal with, (however you see fit), whilst going about your lawful business. I think Finn will return of his own accord, if allowed to, he knows his input is both welcome and necessary, here!

I think a ban upon realization "it's them", is about as good as it gets. However, we need to get on with matters in hand, too. Did Ronny@ disclose any personal details about himself, and/or are the threads you refer to still viewable?
