Not about winning the internet... for me, it's about not backing down from bullies. I have a standing rule in my life that when someone tries to intimidate me out of doing something, I refuse to let them. What you call "being the bigger man" actually just emboldens whoever is trying to intimidate you and doesn't actually make anything better, or at least that's how it's gone in my life. So, I changed tactics on that a long time ago, and it's served me well.
That said, I'd be perfectly happy if jdbolick and I hit the Ignore button on each other, and I think everybody would be happier for it. It's gotta be a mutual gesture though.
