Renegade:
I prefer to pick the venue - which is why you'll find me mostly here at DoCo.  :)

Exactly. :)  And for all of our little disagreements, there is definitely a level of respect and genuine search for understanding and sharing that's not found in too many places.

You guys are reminding me of a quote from a Canadian Prime Minister:

Freedom is the right to be wrong, not the right to do wrong.

I can recall less than 20 ish really negative replies I have received to 5000 posts I have made on the web.-TaoPhoenix (October 22, 2012, 08:47 AM)

20ish?  That's all???  Your lucky.  I've found it don't matter how neutral you try to be on a subject, there's always a herd of schittheads that make it their personal agenda to write something negative in response.  There's always someone that will pick apart whatever you say and try to turn it into something out of context, with the main agenda to pick a fight or bully.  You know.....Trolls.

Well, there may be a few more grumpy "Anonymous" responses over at slashdot but as much as my feeble memory recalls I don't have a permanent stalker troll after me. So I've done pretty well.

Thanks!  I quite like that quote!

SQUIDMAN:
Kinda agree with Tinman57 there always someone trying to be negative, Thats what bullies do, gets them off! >:(

40hz:
As was alluded by several previous comments, it's important to remember you're walking a fine line when dispensing private justice. You have to be careful to keep any response measured and appropriate to the situation at hand. Because revenge is a path with no ending.

I guess the real point is that, when dealing with a troll, you take care not to become one.
