Nice timing, this was on my list of posts to do on my blog to see what opinions came back. The can of worms is now officially open, knock yourself out, be polite and patient if I don�t approve right away. I work nights. PW

Just for clarification:
An Internet troll, or simply troll in Internet slang, is someone who posts controversial messages in an online community…..

A sockpuppet is an online identity used for purposes of deception within an Internet community…….

I’d rather be an IT than a SP….
Thanks!

“The policy applies to all, michael, you just happen to be standing head and shoulders above the rest at the moment.”

OBVIOUSLY, the policy is NOT applying to all since I fail to see other comments either being deleted or edited.
Head and shoulders above the rest…you bet ya bottom dollar on that one!

Several times name-calling and mud slinging have come my way via this blog, but yet, the admin refused to admonish the culprits. When I mention discrepancies, my comments are removed.

Edited by admin. The policy applies to all, michael, you just happen to be standing head and shoulders above the rest at the moment. Tune it down and this will not be necessary. The n’th uncharitable condemnation of Essentials and anybody vaguely Essentials-friendly isn’t adding anything to your argument. This is my last word on the subject – the Blog Rules are posted at the top of the site and are not particularly onerous.

michael – I’d point you to the Blog Rules above. If you want to continue with the discussion in light of that, then please do so. If not, please realise your comments will be edited or removed. Thank you.

He’s not a good troll, though. Good trolls are able to make a single comment on a thread, and then step back and watch the fireworks ensue without having to return to stoke the fire. Michael needs both a stoker and bellows to keep things going.

I like Cathy’s idea; although I imagine it may be a challenge to keep the discussion civil.
