LOL, I know I was one of his biggest attackers, but as long as someone appears to be posting even a little bit more reasonable, then I will give them my respect. It may sound soft but I believe in forgiving people. One of my life mottos: a person will never stop being an asshole if you keep treating them like an asshole (because their assholes).
So, stop treating assholes like assholes, show them some respect and that will at least allow them to stop being assholes. In which case, you should be proud that you helped allow someone to transform from an asshole to a respectful person. If not, well, it was worth the try, maybe they still need time to mature. If a person does show any signs of progress, I will not ignore it. Instead, I will embrace that progress in an effort to accelerate it.
I've been on here long enough to know that people can mature into more respectful posters with time. I started off as a troll myself and changed when one guy started treating me like an intellectual (whatever that is) instead of the troll I was.
