(2,323 posts)I don't like it.
IMO we should just leave these people alone. These posts are fly bait, and only serve to try to provoke HOF members so they can be PP'Rd. Our posts get hidden, rarely theirs.
If we leave them alone, their attack posts will become an echo chamber and it will become truly obvious what is going on.
Each time one of us responds the "swarm" is all over that post re-interpreting it in "swarm speak" to mean something that it does not mean, trying to make us look ugly. And it suceeds, because not everyone is educated on vitriol with which we have been inundated and so do not understand how we are provked.
When you posted this, I went over to META to look up the thread and realized it was one of those that I had hidden.
My advice is when provoked, don't respond. If a thread is too tempting, hide the damn thing.
