1. log on as anonymous member and wait (like, patience is a virtue) - the poser/nutter/idiot will often not post if he's aware of a sentient presence, thus is led into a false sense of security.

2. Let the totally insane twerp evacuate his 'bowels'.

3. Swoop and destroy whilst retard is most vulnerable.

This is merely 1 tactical ploy .... I'd like to know of any others adopted by the sane inhabitants of this forum.

I like to toss them marshmallows and then just sit back and watch the sparks fly when they respond.

I like to beat them severely about the head and shoulders with the "Cudgel of Truth" or similar blunt instrument. Or use the "Sword of Scorn" to chop their logic into little bitty pieces. Or shove the "Lance of Logic" into places they will not enjoy. Or roast them on the "Rotisserie of Reasoned Rhetoric" until they are all crusty and brown.

Or there is always that old standby used against idiots since the days of the cavemen, I hit them with a big rock.

I must admit that my marshmallow strategy works best with the newbies.
It seems that the regular ones can sniff out a tainted tid bit a mile away
here is an example:

If it will help you any,,, Yes I have seen clouds like the ones in the link you posted below here in Florida a few months ago. ( it was winter time)

Most splendid example "h". smile.gif

My favorite tactic is to say something controversial and wait for the troll to respond. Then, attack his response in a clear, consice manner. The idea is to expose the hypocrisy and lies of the troll in question, allowing future readers to make up their own minds. This is a bit conservative but very, very effective.

The tactic in action

Doc to Jerkov:

"You are even lower than pond scum. You're a lying, egotistical, ignorant, paranoid, delusional wacko. You deny reality in the hope that doing so will actually change the fact that you're an idiot. You're an insult to tens of thousands of people. Pond scum would be a serious step up for you."

You need to work harder at the editing business - as of now you make The Doc look good

Well, TheDoc is somewhat excellent .... as for you, I suggest you seriously start editing your genetic code cretbreath.

Of course Doc is "somewhat excellent" - relatively speaking!!! Neither of you have ever posted anything of substance, but at least Doc can be amusing at times.

I'm a dippy-daisy dumbfukk and you're totally correct about my dire need of genetic resequencing.

Agreed.
Edward 3
Not that there was ever any real danger of anybody treating you seriously - but now that you have resorted to this, it will be assumed that all of your future posts may contain misquotes and will be ignored.

Hang on, is Ed using the "there's no substance to your posts" argument in favour of Zerkoff?

While it's true there is some substance to Zerkoff's posts, the substance is brown and smelly tongue.gif

At least you have a sense of humor.
