I monitored the Bad Place for many years (without signing in or interacting), and I learned a lot from watching a couple of folks who specialize in anti-troll tactics. No engaging, just pitch trolls out the airlock on sight. Occasionally screenshot the post in order to mock it publicly. As a sensitive person who usually listens to other arguments, I found that troll points were tiresomely identical. No time for that, I want to have real convos about good things.

@westerling @piepants @gavi Yup, that is 1000% my MO.

I am too old, too tired, too few spoons to spend my time having bad faith discussions. I would so much rather reserve my energy for people who are authentic and want the discussion. Not ppl who get their rocks off by being shitheads online (or bots).

I love hearing a well-reasoned, thought out opinion, with logic to back it up.

@westerling @MsHearthWitch @piepants @gavi Stonekettle Airlock Protocol is the best way. Let them bellow into the void.

@MattFerrel @westerling @MsHearthWitch @piepants @gavi he was here for about 5 minutes and then one of the “you have to use hashtags for all the things” purists got on his nerves and he left.

Yeah, SK for sure is one. He's a grumpy curmudgeon and I am sad but not surprised that he didn't hang around here.
