But, I have seen you say that before, and this suggestion seems to be at odds with that. Is it "do not leave the court if your ego is threatened?" Ha, I mean no offense, but I don't get the contradiction that you will say doesnt' exist?
If it happens before you get off the court, then you have to take care of it. Getting outa Dodge is always a good idea, but if something happens before you can actually get outa Dodge, then you gotta have the nads to take care of business- not walk away from it.

BktBallRef was stating the obvious. Don't wait around hoping for the players, coaches or fans to tell you what a great game you just officiated. If you do, you're much more liable to hear what a complete a$$hole you are. Disappear. If a coach or player swears at you while you're in the process of disappearing, you can't ignore their flagrant actions. You have to stay there and deal with them.
