Replying to shorts - Don't!Everytime you reply to shorts and bashers all you do is 1) repeat their bashing subject header which all most bother to see, 2) give more credence to whatever argument they are throwing up as one worthy and requiring a response, 3) Ignore bashers and short's posts. This is what they hate the most as it gives them less air time and no soapbox to preach from, 4) gives longs the impression that they require no response, 5) do not allow their questions and unstated innuendo and implicit assumtions (as in "When did you stop beating your wife?) to take hold by falling for them and responding as though those assumtions and innuendos were valid.
JUST IGNORE THEM! They will soon tire of talking to themselves or the wall. They enjoy toying with you. If they are paid bashers then ignoring them totally will be proof positive to their employers that they are ineffective and make lose their job.
