It ain't that easy when you got shills and moronic people trying to divide the crowd here by half-automatizing their nonsense-statements and glow-posts.

Sad thing is that it scares off new refugees of other boards and other not so troliing-resilient users. Maybe the generation that never did usenet or irc haven't ever had a chance to see a real flame-war. Nowadays, they cancel shit and rather live in their echo chambers, I believe.

Maybe someone long enough watching this should compile a list of these accounts.

Otherwise, my defense stays what it is:

Let them come and strip themselves of any remaining sanity they possibly still have. For anyone to read.

Last but not least: Let's not forget a simple fact : A flame-war also can be a lot of fun to fight and read.

Remember on UseNet most everybody had a signature that came at the end of their posts? For example:

This is just an exercise in fertility.

Hello everybody. Don't put beans in your ears, especially dried kidney beans.

But, yes, shills, bots, and real people sometimes, all trying to destroy this site. I knew nothing of KiwiFarms until a few days ago and hope they can come back. "... Keep a list" of the glow worms. That's a good idea I never thought of. One sign of bots is the machine language that sometimes glitches as no human would or it goes off on some tangent, but you mentioned that. I like a good flame war too. Saidit users are usually so reasonable and that makes trolls easy to spot also. As for saidit, let's hang together, rather than hang separately.
