Do not respond to trolls - just block them out
Roy "Tristan" Hauer admits STALKING target victim Carol Gulley.
What does Gill say about your net-stalking? Does she approve?

Well since Gill is much better than me with putting forward what is
what, I just have to say, I pretty well much agree with Gill. Sorry
for the way things turned out, but whats done is done...Trust me, it
was this groups best interest at hand, contrary to what you may hear
by the master troll, and certainly not a desire of mine to trash this
group, or any other. However I just fail to accept this gorup is out
of trouble yet since Carol has been slighted. Nuff said! Consider
Gills post one of those "Me Too" posts! from me!
Regards
Tris

Well, I guess thanks for that (even though you won't see this Pszemol
as
I'm in your killfile)....As I'm setting up a new tank in a few weeks
time I have a bit of a vested interest in people being around to share
my experiences and help with my newbie questions (and I don't like the
format of forums)
One thing that might be necessary to understand, certainly in the case
of me and Tristan, is that we have seen soooo many of our newsgroups
go
down to this troll (ponds and freshwater groups) so yes, it might
appear
to those that haven't shared this experience that we are over-reacting
when put in context it is to a certain degree understandable AND 2 1/2
years of putting up with it pushes even the most patient....and yes,
we
should know better than to respond or join in.....I guess we are just
over zealous in our determination that this group doesn't follow the
others....We could see exactly what was being done.....and got very
frustrated that the troll seemed to be winning.....I can't answer for
The Rock as I don't know him very well......I have a sneaking
suspicion
that I might have seen him on the freshwater groups which, if true,
might explain his reactions.
Anyway, I'm not going to post for a while on this group, as I'm pretty
sure that the troll will respond and carry on its vendetta if my name
is
seen - especially as in just by replying to this I am acting as troll
bait....so, sorry for that.....
Just one other point....as the RFD and creation process for a new
moderated rec.ponds progresses (and hopefully comes to fruition) I am
worried that the troll activity will increase - especially targetted
at
me as I am one of the proposed moderators....I hope that you can all
bear with these attacks and not give the troll the attention that it
craves....Another reason why I am going to go quiet on this group.....
Thanks for all the help that all members of the group have given to me
in my little Nano venture....I hope that there will be a troll free
group when I get my 350L tank in the next few weeks....
Sorry if I caused any problems for anyone - not intended
Gill
