Q: Anonymous posters....how to get rid of them...

Of late, we've had more anonymous posters asking crappy questions hoping for a reply. I think the best way is to just boycott them. In time, with no replies to their posts, they get nothing out of it and move out. What do you think of this idea? Any thoughts?

I would support a boycott for sure. Hard part is getting everyone else to follow suit

I suggested the same few months ago. 'Don't reply!'

 

However, we would limit the Board with action. We should press 'pug' to get mandatory sign up as condition for posting (Q or A).

C'mon guys, let's all do this. Otherwise, we get all sorts of crap and even crappier characters taking potshots at us. Just don't reply to their posts.

Just stop feeding the trolls. No down voting them either. Just a complete block.

Yeah me too. Usually it is a trolling question and I want to flame them for their stupidity but better to not give them the satisfaction of thinking that somebody cares what they think.

Have eChinaCities not post anonymous posts. Simple!

louischuahm:

Sinobear requested a few times, don't think it's noted yet. Maybe when things get out of hand then perhaps something will be done. In the meantime, it's best just to ignore anonymous posts and let it stay unanswered.
