Resist the urge to respond to trolls.

You won’t convince them to change their ways and you won’t beat them at their own game.

They already feel like shit, all day every day. Your trolling won’t make them feel worse.

Block and move on. Engagement is what they want.

I think there may be ways to implement cost of engagement in the future. For trolls/bots/etc. to continue to capture your engagement with them.

If someone is 💩 coining in your replies perhaps posting a ⚡️ invoice that must be paid for them to be unblocked. Until then they are blocked and will not receive your engagement. They will be just voicing to the ether (pun intended) at that point.

⚠️WARNING⚠️

Absolutely correct.

Followed and ⚡️🤜🤛💯

Appreciate you!

No doubt. You can tell that there are those out there testing boundaries for attention. Not worth your energy

Agreed. In this community setting blocking removes the noise and secures signal.

I’ve engaged a few times prior and just thought it was a net negative.

There are no wins empowering noise.

And sticking with your community (follows and topics) instead of the global tap.
