Just ignore the trolls and troublemakers, dont feed them, and if they respond ignore them once again. Dont directly respond to their aggressiveness and attempted bullying, because as well all know, bullies are cowards.

They get very frustrated and eventually run away.

This can be a very good place to discuss football, especially the Saints, if you dont allow the usual suspects (we all know who) to wreck the thread or threads.


Lance or James??

There comes a point in every man's life when he has to say, "Enough is enough." For me, that time is now. I have been dealing with claims that I cheated and had an unfair advantage in <redacted>. Over the past three years, I have been subjected to a <redacted>investigation followed by <redacted> witch hunt. The toll this has taken on my family, and my work for <redacted>and on me leads me to where I am today – finished with this nonsense. (Oops just got a spontaneous errection <unredacted>)

Sorry, I ignore you usually troublemaker :wink:

Yup - actually did listen to you regarding the trolls like Nexus and the other one and it is actually quite funny to watch them get in such a tiz when you dont answer them :wink:

they are like children.

Just re read the whole thread. Maybe i have a warped sense of humour but I found it to be very funny. Some guys really do have a sense of humour and some other take themselves way to seriously but only IMO.

While I am at it I reckon people who say there are 3,4 or even 5 guys who are basically a pain in the arse and wreck the forum well why not name those guys. Surely you cant get a warning for naming them. Maybe you could also explain how they could improve their posting so the conform to the rest of the group. I for one dont have a problem with any poster on here even those so called trolls. As others have said just ignore them if you dont like what they write or challenge them if they write crap. I am actually thinking of changing my posting style and challenging people when I disagree with what they say. I am sick of just agreeing with everyone.

how about if we simply responded we actually had something worthwhile to say... rather than just to start a fight.


Case in point, look at the guys that just follow Big Mart around... he's not the only negative 1 around here but a handful of forumites simply follow him around and attempt... rather poorly most times... to criticise his POV

more often than not... it doesn't even relate to the topic and derails it


there's a difference between disagreeing and baiting plugger

have a look at threads between Inkersaint and myself... we clearly both disagree on the topic regarding McQualter's selection in 2010.
I agree it was poor to continue slelecting him and that we may have developed someone else in his place.
He argues that statiscally he was clearly the best player and that injuries meant we didnt have options to replace him.

We've locked horns on it in maybe 2-3 threads in a year and a half... no name calling, no insults, no following each other around and criticising. It's good to debate... bad to seek attention and play agendas

Now I am Cretan and have on occasion been called a cretin!

In politics when inner party squabbling turns into blatant abuse or when we see Tony, Julia et al, indulge in insults in and outside parliament it is called (in some quarters) 'vigorous debate'. Isn't it thus the Australian way?

Perhaps on a psychological level, we use this forum sometimes to vent all our frustrations, disappointments and angst which comes with being Saint supporters? This is healthy as long as it does not venture into racial, sexual and personal abuse one would hope.

I disagree with BM when he states opinions as facts. You may think I follow his posts around but I only comment on ones that IMO are factually wrong or have a baseless opinion. By the way he may also be following around some of my posts and then commenting on them but he is that arrogant he doesnt use the quote button. Maybe because of that you have no idea who he is responding to but I certainly do. By the way I certainly never start name calling, swearing or insults however some people cant take being questioned about things that are clearly incorrect and then start with the insults. That is like a bull at a gate to me.
