addressing it, but I don't do it in reply to aproblem post. In a group, delete 
the problem post, and then make aseparate comment "Some people have said x, and 
here is theexplanation."My point is that it isn't a dialogue with the original 
commenter, itis information for everyone else.-Liz(The Rev. Dr.) Elizabeth Mae

deleting the ugly stuff (cults, communes, etc.) from your posts and banning the 
trolls. It can only hurt you to leave it in there. Maybe address one 
"cult/commune" post with a level-headed explanation of the differences and nuke 
the rest of them. It seems to be the same two or three people making all the 
posts. Get rid of them. There's no way you can change your content to reduce 
the trolling.>> Katie Henry> Heartwood Commons - Tulsa> Where construction

community (Burns Village and Farm) in Tennessee.  We have been advised to post 
on Facebook more often, and to use boosts to reach out to find people who are 
looking for cohousing communities.  Some posts, and especially my most recent 
one, attract people who are hostile. There are comments about our community 
being a scam or cult, some that veer into national politics to criticize what 
we are offering.  Do you have suggestions for content that will be informative 
and less likely to trigger anti-cohousing posts?>
