Exactly. Very specifically, if someone posts in a factual, helpful
manner, then reply away, and don't forget a "Good point, Joe!" If
someone (even the same someone) posts in a tone or manner that seems
intended to incite bickering, flames, etc., then just ignore it.
If necessary, and a particular poster always seems to post in negative
mode, never or almost never in positive, consider your killfile as an
option.
