And I'm even hesitant on giving them enough attention to downvote- it provides a metric that they can quantify and use to assess. It enables them to read a data signature.
They're whoring for attention because their job depends on it.
Don't let them drown out the signal to noise ratio.
Yes, I've engaged them at times- argued.
But ego isn't really worth it.
I take a different approach. I'll troll the ever living shit out of them and waste their time whilst hopefully exposing them to the community for what they really are. That's just me, though.
I do get what you're saying, though. We all have our vices, and I have many. Lawd, forgive me.
It's all good, Brother. Different strategies, same goals- do what you have found works for you.
I'm about to go indulge in some vices right now, myself- namely fornication and alcohol.
Have fun jerking off!
