Advice on the treatment of bashers: 1. Read what they have to say. Sometime, if they are stating facts, they might be right. 2. Do not respond. A basher manipulates you on an emotional level. The basher is looking for an emotional rise out of the audience. If you respond, you are giving the basher's exactly what he or she is looking for. 3. If you feel you must respond, which I myself am guilty of here, never address the basher directly (in the first person). Never mention the basher's name. Do not use the Respond key under his posting to place your response (eg. you could use a Respond key from one of your own previous postings, as an alternative). Talk about the basher as if he weren't here. Do not acknowledge his presence. A basher's currency is your emotions. If you reply, then you are in effect paying him for his efforts.
