The Bug-Trolling Attitude Hax Eel, 2006-01-02
People, There is a common behavior among people in software geek forums, that whenever a software is crashing or behaving badly, they respond by writing stupid essays about it and cross-post it to multiple newsgroups as if it is the duty of Usenet readers to suffer through their egocentric rantings. When a troll is full of shit, as is likely in connection to egregious irresponsibility as most trolls are unable to spell "thru", the thing one should not do is to fawn up to their ass by responding to their post and treating their verbal diarrhoea with dignity, as that is the least effective method in correcting the problem. The common attitude of responding to trolls is one reason that contributed to the tremendous egregious irresponsible egotistical arrogant know-nothing adjective-over-users on Usenet that each of us have to endure daily all the time. When a poster is ostensibly incorrect and full of hot-hair about licensing, the most effective and moral attitude is to do legal harm to the poster. If you live in lawyer-happy countries like the USA, you can do this by filing a law suit for mental anguish and emotional distress against the poster. If you live in the United Kingdom, you can apply for an Anti-Social Behaviour Order or ASBO. In severe and serious cases, it may be appropriate to pop a cap in the fucker's arse. ---------------- This post is archived at: http://www.trolling-for-you.org/FullOfCrap_dir/crap/bug_trolling_attitude.html Hax [EMAIL PROTECTED] ∑ http://trolling-for-you.org/ -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
