Troll-baiting is trolling, in its own right.  *plonk*

Why is starting a thread about fansubs troll-baiting? Even I don't start
a flamewar every time it's mentioned. As for the idiot, any thread is an
invitation for him to jump in and strew feces around.

I guess for some, bringing up any controversial topic is trolling. But
we shouldn't shy away from such topics simply because they are
controversial. Because remaining silence is the worst thing we can do.

But I did pitch the topic to allow everyone to talk about their personal
ethics. And even though one party has predictably belted out "fansubs
bad!" in an attempt to derail the topic. but we can ignore him, can't we?

The thing is, they are.

The difference (until Brian began his bleating) is that I tried to
demonstrate to you _why_ they are bad. Since you wanted (I perceived)
to have an intelligent discussion on the matter, I was more than
willing to accomodate.

Then, Brian showed himself to be a sanctimonious jackass, and, well, I
see six responses by him and this is not going to be fun.
