PLEASE DON'T FEED THE TROLL
A MESSAGE FROM THOSE ABUSED BY BARKER
This is a standard reply to someone whose vendettas have darkened the
tone of alt.books.ghost-fiction for many years.
Reasoned argument and factual refutation have failed to stop his
attacks. Even a cursory glance at the newsgroup's archives will
readily establish that fact. Therefore, many long-time contributors to
this group have agreed to share this message as the most appropriate
response to his accusations.
Anyone who cares to separate fact from false allegation is welcomed to
contact the people, societies, businesses, and publications that are
his constant targets.
We look forward to hearing from you.

You're making a fool of yourself, Mr Roden.
No one except a small band of Roden loyalists is paying the slightest
bit of attention to your self-imposed proclamations. I confidently
predict that you will alienate the floating voter with your obsession.
After all, where is your mandate? You don't have one.
Where is your majority show of hands? You don't get it.
Elsewhere, the more reasonable people in this forum are talking quite
sensibly about practical and less extreme solutions. You meanwhile
continue to stalk up and down the street like a mad Jehovah's Witness
preaching a 'one religion' dogma.
Most of us prefer to worship in a broad church.

Roden owes as great many more. Every time he posts this silly "I think
he's a troll, so even though I don't have a mandate or the approval of
Bill Allision, I'm going to go ahead and try to enforce my views on
this group" message.
It's not abuse to point out that one of the group's members is
spouting nonsense from a soapbox while wearing a jester hat, a big red
nose and waving a pig's bladder.
TTFN,
Chris >> Stay informed about: If it's good enough for Ramsey Campbell........ |
