Don’t disappear after making your commotion.

So from time to time a new user will show up make a post and then disappear.  Now there are a number of new users that post something that turns a bit controversial. There’s been sometimes where some of the more regular users really team up and give them an online spanking. (Sometimes deserving of course.) Lol. 
There would probably be more bystanders that took up for the new poster at least a little bit, but they don’t for a reason. You see the normal users are going to be coming back again and again and the one time user might simply make a big commotion and then disappear…. There have been several newer posters that were getting schooled to the point that I felt bad for them, but why say anything when after someone takes up for them a bit they ghost everybody?  
Just a thought. Not too deep I know, but I just was thinking about it and here it is..:)

    Joe what I see these days are that self promotion is more acceptable than in the past.

    So when you have new posters that basically write an add for their business.. And their business is somewhat controversial to some of the more experienced folks.. U will see people putting them on the spot.. the Guy who went on and on about 0 interest business loans that was a perfect example.. and of course sub to investing will bring out opinions that are far ranging from its illegal and crooked to its the greatest thing since slice bread and you should come this group of go givers :)
