MODERATORS
I don't really engage with anything I don't see as a thoughtful reply made in good faith. Sometimes. But I try not to.
Similarly, have they offered something worthy of my time and consideration?
Yes, consider engaging.
No? Next.
I like to lead such people on in bad faith. watching them go from thinking they are the ones in control of the conversation to realising they are being played is actually quite fun. Bonus points for the rabid PMs they might start sending towards the end. Just knowing you can rile someone up so much when they expected to control the narrative is great
