IGNORE RIDICULOUS COMMENTS
|
|
Recently, we have been getting some posts that are on the verge of being outrageous or ridiculous. I believe these people are not really teachers, but individulas who would like to get a negative response and create a disturbance.
In the future I am going to completely igore these comments and not post a
response, in order not to fuel the fire. Your decision is entirely up to you. |

You �re right, Giovanni.
There have been several examples in the last few days.
Should we call this the " silly season"  effect? For both for trigger posts and and responses... |

I completely agree with you, Giovanni! This is an excellent site and somebody doesn �t like nice and peaceful things, so he/she throws the pebble into the pond and waits! It �s up to us not to react, even if it �s difficult sometimes. It �s important to hear other people ideas but not when they are spoken out in rudeness and horrible manners like bad words and silly nicknames. Let �s ignore them! Let �s not even post them, let �s delete them immediately!

and if that doesn �t work? just do like me and report all their contributions (joke)

tbabz -
What makes you think this "person" is a teacher?
You don �t have to prove you �re a teacher to register here.
