It has no effect on the threads with real topics, so there is no problem.
Like I said it is a waste of time and we end up stooping down to their level. That is the problem.
It's not a waste of time if the troll goes away and doesn't return. It's also not a waste of time if enough of us get on these uh, people (OK, Brad?) and maybe make them think a little bit about their actions. As Chuck pointed out before, this is certainly NOT the venue that should allow this type of person to encourage and promote their coaching philosophy of "working officials". Especially "working officials" in a middle school girls game. Maybe if they find out just how unsporting others really view their actions, they might just maybe think a l'il bit the next time before they go into their act. And it is a deliberate "act", and not a spontaneous response to what may have been a bad call. It's an act that is calculated to harass and influence officials, in order to gain an unwarranted advantage. Nothing more, nothing less. [/B]
JR, I'm with you on that. If the troll goes away, I am with you on that 100%
