Oh NO! You mean you judged whether to reply to a post on its content, rather than who posted it? Disaster! Just think, if everyone did that, then...URC would be a *far* better place.

I can't begin to understand this attitude prevalent among the trolls that a post is worth replying to if Person X posts it, but the *exact same post* shouldn't even be read, let alone replied to, if Person Y posts it. It's baseless discrimination at its worst.
