1) Tell everyone the Trolls don't bother you.
2) Say you've killfiled them, yet continue to respond.
3) Tell other people off who repsond despite doing so yourself.
4) Continually talk about Trolls while maintaining 
    they're having no effect.
5)  Publicly post killfile rules so the Trolls know 
    how to avoid them.
6)  Make lame legal threats and other barrel scraping
    manoeuvres when your abuse reports are ignored.
7)  Eat vast quantities of pies.
8)  Forget to brush your teeth for several decades.
9)  Help a demon.local poster with their email while 
    secretly reading it.
10) Pretend you're a hard *** when in fact you're

11) Become the laughing stock of Usenet like Mabbet
12) Die of old age
13) Keep paying Dr Chartham his fees and hope one day you
    will have a penis the girls can see.
