They usually fit one of two profiles: flame-baiters or scammers (ok, maybe a third: both). If you react to it, the flame-baiters will just get their jollies and the rest of us have to put up with a flame thread that goes on forever. The scammers will just keep hanging around and posting if they think someone reads it. If we ignore this junk, the flame-baiters and the scammers will look for someplace else to go for their kicks.
