    I agree! most especially with cartoons ;)
    Pandora - if you have a problem with the cartoon and are unwilling to accept my apology, report me. Now. Then you can move on from it.

    Are you being defensive? I did not mention you.
    Hey we see many cartoons they are great trolling tools,
    often just appear with little said, meant to aggravate and insult another group of people,
    sometimes with humor.

    BinFrog shows up to just dis my posts adds nothing to a thread.
    Hmmm can we say troll?

    Really it comes down to whether you like a person or not.
    Taking sides against they are a troll
    taking sides for they are amusing

    it's a popularity contest and like the OP said this is a very left leaning group here ...
    but we're working on it ;) that's supposed to be humor :lol:

    Not sure you really understand what a troll is.

    Is baiting even an issue if no one bites?

    Same for meanspiritedness, whether by a "troll" or one who responds in kind...?


    Exactly! I haven't been around as long as some of you but I have already figured out the trolls even though they are usually the ones denying it over and over again. Since we all seem to recognize, and agree in many instances, then we should take their power away and stop responding, AT ALL, to any thread they start or participate in. Then maybe they would go troll elsewhere and we could engage in a real debate and discussion rather than continuing to respond and report each other for offensive nonsense.
    Are we getting something out of this all-encompassing trip?

    Seems my preconceptions are what should have been burned...

    I AM MINE

    you're out of your fucking mind. I posted in this thread before you did, so if anything, you followed me. And I would never be so high on myself as to accuse someone of that. if anything, when you show up to a thread, more often than not, I LEAVE. And I'm not alone.

    there are many people on here I disagree with constantly. they are not trolls. they have differing opinions, engage respectfully, research the issues they are speaking about, and don't bait others.

    actually, worse than a troll. you are the thread killer. every time you show up to a thread it devolves into arguing and calling each other names. you stir the pot.

    I know it's repetitive but I'm agreeing here OK :D They are quite a few that end up locked for some reason when dominated by a certain person.

    indeed.
    I must add to this definition.. it also defines someone who reads other peoples' posts, etc., and doesn't respond to said posts, but then, him/herself, posts something almost identical in another, (usually)unrelated thread, thinking noone notices. :lol: Trickery I tell you.
    ..and it has nothing to do with differing political opinions...it's fake, insecure, high-schoolish, imaginary one-upmanship... happens on facebook relatively frequently also.
