I believe their ultimate purpose is to leave a stagnant trail of ugliness everywhere they go while watching forum members eventually turn on each other in an attempt to re-establish the peace.

Haha, yes let’s attack each other in an attempt to re-establish peace. Hurray for Canadian trolls!

This is true! That’s what happened to us on another forum only because we didn’t have any moderators over there but now we do.

So the playing field was left wide open for trolls to register, create a shit thread, or disturb a great topic thread. Then most of us would jump in, defend the person the troll was trying to attack. However, in the attempt to get everything back to normal on the board, a lot of cattiness came out towards eachother and I’m sure that’s what the troll wanted to see.

These people definitely leave a sourness on the board. And I agree with Mufasa who indicated that there are different levels of trolls. I believe that’s what you said right Mufasa?

Then there’s the regular hi-jacking shit disturbers who throw their lame-ass comments into some great topic threads. They have nothing creative or intelligent to contribute whatsoever.

Is it neccesarily a bad thing for hidden cattiness and disagreement to come out?

I know this is a bit of an unusual take on it, but, I never much like how some people put on socialable fronts. If you feel a certain way, why not respectfully admit it? Doesn’t mean you have to go about calling one a bitch or a bastard, but, if you hate someone’s guts for some reason, then why not admit it?

I don’t think this troll side effect is neccesarily a bad one, though, I agree with Mufasa in that I hate when a good thread gets totally sidetracked and we lose the insight that would be gained if people would focus.[/quote]

No I don’t think it’s a bad thing to disagree. We all have opinions, good & bad. No forum can be Utopia. It’s when the hits become lower and lower and what’s the point in letting it get that far?

Sure we may all put up sociable fronts but if we’re gonna disagree on something why can’t it be with respect for eachother? But then it comes back to the Utopia scenario. Never gonna happen. big sigh

The other forum I’m referring to is the Oxygen forum. Recently there was a lot of name calling, i.e. bitch, negative bitch, f-off bitch… and it didn’t need to go that far. I’d rather not get into heated discussions or disagreements with people online. That’s just not my personality.

Chris:

“Trolls like the Internet because they get less teeth knocked out through this medium.”

Whahah that was very funny stuff! Do more…

zeb, patience, he’ll be here all week- just remember to tip your waiter.

Hey look, I know how to use Google

Me too.

I knew this guy didn’t quite fit in around here, but, thanks to 9-11 Girl’s usefull troll mug-shot, I realized why he didn’t belong.

miniross is not a troll. You may disagree with him, and you might not be able to understand what the fuck he’s saying, but he is not a troll.

I think he prefers the term, ‘wee man’. :wink:

Whenever I come across a post of miniross’s, I usually skip over it. Most of the time I just don’t understand what the hell he is trying to say.

It’s sort of like when I read a thread that I’m mildly interested in, and then I see BB’s post and I read half the article, but then I scroll down a little and see he has 2 more article and 52 more paragraph’s for me to read. And this is only his first post, he has like 8 more posts. And than I remember that I was only slightly interested in the subject matter anyway, so I go play with that virtual bartender some more.[/quote]

Pour me a frothy one big man, but try not to break the glass… =-)

nope. Sorry to burst your bubble that way. I already tried selling them on ebay…that’s why I had so many left over that I was able to distrubute copies.

I’ve been reading and posting on these forums since they first opened, and the trolls have gotten out of hand. They are turning this once info packed forums into nothing but a trash can of negative babble.

The trolls are even making a lot of very knowledgeable and erudite forum posters leave.

We need to kick those dumb-asses out.

I have been accused of trolling,.

Aren’t you the guy who jumped on the Jeep thread, where off road enthusiasts were having a fun discussion and posting pics, and told them they were gay for driving Jeeps?

Then in another thread involving tattoos, you jumped in and insulted them too.

You may not be a troll, but that was trollish behavior.

Yes, but i did not accuse the owners/drivers of being gay, and infact (self effacingly) noted about my partcular conveyance, and likewise was then noted as having a “gay” car.

Re tats thread, just see the other conflab on that thread. refer and read.

I disagree that it was trollish behaviour, (maybe the jeep one, but that was in jest and was not a trolling).

A troll is quade the finest (remember him) and trollish behaviour would be throwing around swearwords and personal insults,

as it happens i wish i could get something like the 4x4, but petrol prices here are ridiculous, and lets just say i am envious.

Kick this moron of this forum, we don’t need this troll!

Boss.

Thanks for your constructive feedback. I will be the judge of when i should leave the forum. apart from this case i do feel that many of my posts have been at the worst benigne (and illegible).

Some others may feel differently, but there you go.
