Ignore them or do as I do, simply add their name to my email blocker.
Out of sight, out of mind.

Subject: One approach to dealing with provocateurs
My 2 cents, my approach, for what it's worth:
I think that the best way to rid ourselves of an auditeer who we're all
finally just *tired of* is to completely ignore them. Don't take their
bait, don't even read their posts. By now, you should know what to
expect from them. They only need one "public" reply to keep them going,
that's what they feed on. Don't respond to angry, toxic posts intended
only to inflame. If you're just so angry that you *must* respond, do it
off-list.
There's so much that's good and of value about Audities, don't let the
bastards get you down. ;-)
Ignore them. I can't think of anything that would be more effective. Any
other ideas/approaches? I understand that some people enjoy the battle
of words and egos. Some folks find it entertaining. Some folks like
bullfighting. *wink*. Fair enough.
