Without naming anyone in particular, there are a few posters here that attempt to "stir the pot", start stupid threads, make inappropriate comments, and are generally inane.

Rather than take the bait, and then become involved in trading insults, it would be preferable to just IGNORE all such postings and never respond. If those posters never receive any responses, perhaps they will lose interest.

Me thinks they crave attention....

The problem is if they tack it on the end of a very good thread it often kills it. That's more the problem. Interjection into a good older thread rathre than creating a new obviously stupid one.

Absolutely agree, and we've seen it yet again just this morning.
