On Trolls:<br><br>"Shlomi suggests that the often-suggested method of ignoring the trolls
(often referred to as "don't feed the trolls") is not the way to go.
Neither is criticism, calling for banning, or asking a troll to simply
stop trolling. So what <em>should</em> you do? Ask questions to clarify (e.g <i>"Why do you feel that Python is so bad? What do you find wrong with it?"</i>), and kill with kindness (e.g. <i>"It's OK to prefer Perl, we'll still accept you here."</i>). As frustrating as it may be to be nice to someone who isn't, sometimes people just want to be heard and accepted."<br>
