[kj] ot: Trolls

[Jim Harper]

98% of the list don't need to be told what to do; I mean, we've survived on here for years with the minimum of dispute. It's just been in the past twelve months or so that a handful of new arrivals have started taking advantage of the fact that this is an mostly-unmoderated list that relies on mutual respect rather than a system of punishments.
   
  It's sad that it might have to come to this, but I really don't see why people who won't treat the list and its members with respect should be allowed to have access to the list. It's not fair on the vast majority of members.

  Well Jim, the way I see it is that people should be intelligent enough to conduct themselves in a proper manner.

There is no point in laying down rules, no-one sticks to them.
The mud slinging is pretty sad, Pete West gets alot of the blame but he really isn't the only one/worst.

Who actually feels that they need to be told what to do? Serious question

  That's a shame. I think a little moderator guidance might help to restore some of the focus of the list. It certainly couldn't do any harm.
   
  Anyway...

As far as i'm concerned you can say what you like just as long as folks keep off the racist shit.
There has been little of any interest here for a long time. I try to ignore most of it.

So what have we got................


"a lack of buy-in to the list philosophy or values"
*******Dregs AKA Darth********

"the use of provocative language and sweeping generalisations about
certain topics
*******Greg************
or categories of people"
******I'll claim that one***********

"Thinks that they are superior because"I used to be a D.J."
******Mikeal Bystrom"""""""""


"a lack of in-depth understanding of the topic"
******Mel ,AKA mg ldn*********

"use of language that encourages the dialogue to enter topics that are
controversial and likely to upset some team members"
*********ilesspat*********


We ve established who the trolls are, so what can WE do about it? Robs
already used up his quota of three posts per month so its no good asking
him, so I suggest WE just ignore them. Hopefully they will just get bored
and go away and leave US all in peace.
