Hi
@zeeb0t .
@MoneyBags1348 is good, honest to a fault and ... yes can be abrasive. But he justly calls a troll, a troll. I value his input and prolific posting. Thanks and BR Sparrowhawk
I second this

Here is 2c worth
Within this thread, an alarming situation has unfolded, trolls with multiple accounts have infiltrated and are prospering after a few unsuccessful efforts, causing disinterest and frustration among genuine users. Despite reports being filed against these trolls, they continue to sow discontent and hinder meaningful engagement. There should be an urgency of addressing this issue to prevent the loss of valuable community members.
It is disheartening to witness the detrimental impact of trolls within this thread. Their disruptive presence has caused valued members, such as
@MoneyBags1348, to become disinterested and disengaged. Reports filed against these trolls, including my own, have seemingly fallen on deaf ears, allowing the toxic atmosphere to persist.
Consequences of allowing trolls to dominate the conversation extend beyond the individuals directly affected. As demonstrated by the overwhelmingly positive reactions to
@Sparrowhawk12's post (currently at 27), it is evident that many others share the sentiment of discontent. This suggests a growing number of users feeling disenchanted with the platform's slow transformation into a hub for trolls and hostility, we already have HC for that.
@MoneyBags1348's presence within the community holds significant value. Losing an active and respected member due to the persistence of trolls is not only regrettable but also counterproductive. It is crucial to prioritize the retention and well-being of dedicated contributors who enhance the platform's quality and foster a sense of belonging among users.
Immediate action is required to rectify this concerning situation. By swiftly identifying and taking appropriate measures against trolls through further discussion with
@MoneyBags1348.
Ignoring the presence of trolls and the impact they have on valued community members will only lead to further disinterest and alienation.
