Basically, when commenting on a blog or posting in a forum, I always try to see myself as a guest in someone else’s house (although a virtual one). If someone is being obnoxious or worse, they should be shown the door. That’s what I would do, if I were the host.
Every online community attracts trolls and flamers, but the upside is, that it’s a sign that this is a thriving place. Otherwise, they’d find other places, where they could get more attention (which is usually all they want).
