Taking this group back...

Is there any point in trying to take this group back? How many people on
here would like to do so? In my opinion it would mean all people of
goodwill on here creating and using a common killfile and then signing
all posts with a list of killfiled names for other people to follow.
Would it work? The group seemed to work a lot better for me just by the
removal of two people. And they are not even the worst spreaders of anti
cycling hate on here.

Or just **** off to the moderated group if opposition to your "arguments"
causes you so much obvious butthurt.

Sounds very like Simon is back. A replacement Captain Trollbuster?

Captain Trollbuster? Trolls are a fact of life, but you can be ignored
and people who want to discuss cycling - warts and all - CAN filter you out.

You will need the special anti-troll killfile application that Simon wrote.
Please feel free to KF me, it will reduce your blood pressure and make
your keyboard easier to use (you will be able to remove the cling film)
Your monitor will not need cleaning so often, win-win all round for you.

How about a moderated group?

I think we have already covered that one. Do keep up.

I have a great idea. Reply to all the people you disagree with but change
the subject line to something like "Motorist massacres cyclists". I think
that has been done before with great success ;-)

Not worth it. My kf has 6 names in it and that kills *more* than 90% of
the posts.

URCM for a decent discussion.

Unfortunately it is the few obsessive and compulsive posters that the
outside world frequently sees and who seem hell-bent on disrupting and
spoiling it for others. Frequently they argue that what they post is
'on-topic', but nonetheless it is not always appropriate nor very conducive
for a reasonable and positive discussion.

Of course they know who they are, and may well pop up to argue that their
posts are all on-topic for a cycling group and probably also argue that
their posts stimulate discussion.

But unless they do something wrong and their account can be closed, they
will continue to spoil it for others.
