Trolls and flamers are common on weblogs and in forums, we have had them and we will have more in the future. I was refering to what went on on the Daily Herald site and Teen Times, we will not be permitting that to happen to this site. While some people will be upset about that, I think the majority of readers and users want informed and intelligent discussion and debate.
Trolling and Flaming are common tactics used, sometimes subconciously, by people who do not like what they are reading and want to stir up arguments and off topic spats to distract from the real topic.
Mr Petty does not like or think much of this site, it is realistic to assume it will not and does not please everyone and there is a limit to how far one can bend trying to do so.
Blaming SXM PE for the exposure to the world of SXM´s problems is, in my opinion, a dumb argument. If people talk nonsense and sillyness then they will get a suitable response from me. If Petty wants to post again with a more intelligent argument that he is welcome to do so. Few comments get deleted, on average about 1 every 3 or 4 weeks I would say. The purpose of this site is for people to exchange opinions, debate and discuss., intelligently. Petty´s comment was published and I responded, in the best way I felt, clearly.
Oh, I reduced the caps you mentioned, it was not my intention to shout, just to make it clear, anyone can come and post a blog, if they have an issue of tstory they want to open up then they should not wait for a regular writer to get to it but do it themselves.
I will take note of your words and do my best to moderate my moderating :)
