Don't feed

Don't feed the f-ing trolls. I know this rule.

It snuck up on me and caught me by surprise.

Beware the f-ing trolls and don't feed them. They'll go away.

What's the correlation here? I know what my spidey senses tell me but perhaps you could clarify in a PM if necessary.
Want to make sure we're hunting the same trolls.

If a user can't abide by the following, I won't discuss/debate with them.

Thanks DK for posting that I was just trying to figure out how to copy your PM version and post it. Some good thoughts there to apply here.

DK, I've no clue (and have no need to know) about why you started this tread, but think the discussion flowchart is great! Several of my acquaintances will be getting a copy of it...

Flawed. Flow chart absolutes don't work with human discourse. Simple solutions for simple....

I like it in theory ... except that KahrTalk would then have to shut down.

[Bawanna]

Kahrtalk will never shut down as long as Al Gores internet continues to work.

Pretty good. Where does thread jacking come in and taking the original post so far off topic with something foolish that no one would recognize it any more? I'm good at starting that one.

Hey that could be #5.

5. If your topic is really stupid we will take it so far off track that the OP will look like a fool.

How about that?

It's missing both feedback loops.
