Enabling a troll is also acting > in a way that is detrimental to the community. But I haven't seen > you express disappointment in that. I've already explained why that is. First, it's less anguish to kill-file one troll than several vitriolic regulars (and I realize that he keeps changing his name, but fortunately I think he's only used three different /addresses/ in the time that he's been posting). Second, I don't want to bully anybody into not trying to help a user where they want to and believe that they can. It may be "enabling" for the troll, but it's unhealthy for the list in general. > Those that expressed their disappointment with the enabling behaviour > were more or less told they should deal with it. So tell me, why > should your disappointment merrit more consideration? When did I ever say that it should?

That's why I'm speaking up.
