All true but I am trying to find out what the line is so I can decide whether to support or oppose. Is it OK to bait people as long as they don't rise to the bait? Most of the time when Scott baits me, I don't rise it it. I'm pretty proud of my record (no one is perfect of course) lately, I've ignored 95+% of his baiting. But I don't think it *should* be OK to keep baiting and baiting and baiting the way he does. And I don't think he (or anyone) should be able to get away with it over and over and over just because most people ignore it most of the time.

(...) Look at it like a challenge, strive for purfection. <g> I hope Suz will deal with the baiting. But you are responsible for what you do with what is thrown at you. Let her deal with Scott. Jude (23 years ago, 14-May-02, to lugnet.admin.suggestions)

(...) It doesn't matter whether you support or oppose it. LUGNET is not a democracy. If Suz wants to give you or anyone else a "time out" for whatever reason, that's her prerogative. --Bill. (23 years ago, 14-May-02, to lugnet.admin.suggestions)

(...) Sounds like about the only plausible solution to me... Perhaps in a perfect world Suz could spend time punishing baiters, but it sounds like that's not gonna happen. (...)

		Re: Block user X from replying to a message by user Y
(...) These words are baiting, and I totally reject what you are trying to say. I'd be amazed if you could back this up. In fact, I'll give ten pounds to charity if you can show me/us the alleged "95+%" baits you have ignored from me and the alleged (...) (23 years ago, 15-May-02, to lugnet.admin.suggestions)
