A really good way I have found that doesn't turn the audience against you like barbecuing souls does is to not speak to whoever you're replying to at all. Openly say you're addressing the audience and speak of your opponent in the third person, the way you do when you are talking about someone else right in front of them. Or like, the way you'd show them a new game system you bought, or cookies you made, or something.

I did that before to an astroturfer on Reddit and the guy never responded back, and I got tons of sweet sweet Reddit karma.

Do you keep a list of people whom you've verified as human, perchance?
