Re: Trolls

[bling]

The reason these forums have 'em is because you guys aren't willing to "play the game". What does a troll come on here for? To make globs of shit hit the fan. He doesn't give jack shit about what he's saying, he just whips up a nice crock of shit and lets the hatin' begin. Trolls would evaporate from this site forever if you would JUST NOT RESPOND! Come on, the last troll post had 35 replies last time I looked. That means the troll has creamed his pants TWICE now in excitement that he got everyone in a fit. Ignore the morons and move them to dead thread zone the moment they appear. You dont really need to point out that he's a complete moron with your leet images. He knows what he is.    

(yes I know I use leet images, but they're hella funny!)

To tell you the truth XP Hater, I was of the same opinion way back when trolls were literally flooding the forums. However, I came to the conclusion that these forums would die with the absence of trolls. If you prefer, the relationship between trolls and members of these forums is kind of symbiotic. We need them and they need us in a way.    

Anyway, I was just trying to be humorous with the last one, but he took it the wrong way. BTW, one of these forums' beloved trolls is X11 as well. If we stopped responding to other trolls then we should stop responding to X11 as well. No offense X11, but you really were asking for it.

X11= teh troll.
but he is not nearly as entertaining as some of the other ones

It would appear that the forums are cleaned again. We mods have a pretty good response time!

holy poo I looked in the dead thread zone and finally saw the Bizarro Calum posts.

Thanks for the quick response Muffin Man, and propably Macman as well, who took care of the other post in the Mac forum.

aw i feel ignored, just because i didn't post doesn't mean i'm not here.  

Actually, i got here a little late. but i did catch one in the windows section.

[Calum]

why do they pick me to "impersonate"?

bizzarre.

also, these forums exist for the benefit of trolls. real people looking for real stuff would visit a real forum with real information.

[Pissed_Macman]

The line between Troll posts and angry posts (which there is a large number of here) is really fuzzy. Sometimes you respond to a post that you think was just someone venting then you say, "Oh shit!! I just played into those bastards' hands!!!"

Being and annoying troll + Having lots of mod privelages = X11

And XP Hater, this thread is in some ways a response. See how hard it is?

Ooops, sorry Stryker.        I thought it was Macman who dead threaded this clown's post from the Mac section. Anyway, thanks again.    

EDIT: I noticed that Stryker isn't one of the mods in the Mac forum. Who dead threaded that one, finally?    :eek:   Well, whoever did it, thanks.
