Unnecessary aggression is far too common on the internet. Forums are full of people that seem to do naught but badmouth. These individuals are, on the whole, cowardly attention seekers. The type that heckle you in the street if you stand out for some reason, but only do so from the safety of the other side of the road, and only if flanked by at least 3 likeminded urchins.
We normal, slightly more civil folk outnumber them 100 to 1, but this counts for naught on the internet as nothing is face to face, making cowards feel brave. Here, were all just a name, an icon and whatever text we type, meaning that were only an entity if we are read. You dont exist here without an audience. So, to tackle the vermin whose vocabulary consists of only profanities and whose posts are all insulting or derogatory; ignore them. Dont respond. Let them waste their time. Even the most thick-headed will tire of talking to no one and will eventually either disappear or wise-up to the fact that you'll get a lot further being nice than by being a little prig.

SORRY, Internet Tourette Syndrome. lol.
In short, when it comes to idiots who insult others for personal pleasure, I am a hair trigger.
aww.. lookit all the little devvies and their deifications of jollyjack
I can, with no remorse, say that I like kicking people who deserves it. I'm sorry, but some just have a bite from the karma-alligator coming, and I guess I just carry it out, at times. Ofcourse, my manners differ from person to person, but I'm not going to lie, and I'm absolutely not going to stand by passively, if they, as self-proclaimed oracles sling **** around their designated area of internet space.
On the other hand, I rarely play it rude, and attempt to make my point as polite as possible, unless the opposing person failed to do so him/herself, wherafter I like to tell them off as twats, usually well documented.
Though I must admit I rarely strike first, if ever, but if I'm asked for my opinion, or my opinion is smuthered, I'll defend it whole-heartedly.
And when it comes down to that, I really enjoy the part where I stamp on them. A lot.
Ofcourse, you may not be talking about me, but it could be... I don't know... Whatever...
