Please do not feed the trolls

I know some regulars here are beyond tired of HLF, and others respond to him (much to the chagrin of the first group).

I thought I would share the below definition and advice. Yes, I know, random web pages aren't the most scientific resource, but I don't know of this information being published in any other place. If you don't like this link, simply do a search on "Internet Troll", and you'll get plenty to choose from.

http://www.flayme.com/troll/

The object of this page is to bring together a definitive document to cover the utter sadness of the Internet troll. Usually, a troll is nothing more than a passing nuisance, but, as this page will show, they can be a worry (stalkers). However, it is almost invariably an inadequate individual who can be safely ignored.

This page will define the activity, and help with early recognition; once acknowledged, trolls can take up residence, and, like athlete's foot, can be difficult to shift.

So there you go boys and girls. We didn't ignore the troll, and now it's ours.

I NEVER ignore a slap in my face or an insult to a friend. I'm not made that way.

I was for blocking the scum sucking ass munch, but cooler heads prevailed. Said that we'd become them by censoring his views. If he had views I'd listen, all this twit has is rhetoric and insult.

Personally, I'd like to take a bat to his ass, but I'll not just ignore it while it's allowed to stay.

Look, don't blame me that you can't handle opposing viewpoints.

My posts mostly contain idieas that counter yours and links to back them up.

Don't start an open blog if you don't want opposing views. I see conservative comments on liberal blogs all the time.

I have no problem with opposing viewpoints. My probelm is with YOU! And I am closing in.

There is a HUGE difference in an "opposing point of view" and a useless pansy's blatant, pointless name-calling done for no other reason than to incite anger.

THAT is why you are hated - not because you have a different point of view, but because you are a scumbag.

HLF said...

Bullshit. I've gone to conservative blogs and been polite but it gets you nothing but abuse.

You really aren't nice people and HATE to be opposed.

Schteveo said...

So you went elsewhere and got abuse, so you came here to redirect, in kind, what you got elsewhere?

Well that's really adult of you.

I'll tell you what HLF,
I'll start, and remember, in this very comment section said I was for expelling you and whipping your ass, I'll make you an honest offer...

You stop with the name calling, and SO WILL I.

Give us your honest opinion, your honest thoughts, your honest opposing ideas, and see if we can't just get along, even with opposing ideas.

Quite frankly, your last two comments were the best I've seen in a while from you. I'll listen to most anyone who will argue the point. But I draw the line at insults and lies.

There it is, my honest offer of friendship and inclusion in our group. Hell, I'm for offering you author privileges too, if we can just have differing opinions, without name calling, and I'll start with no name calling on this one.

The ball is in your court.

I just wanna give him to the decapitating friends of his he loves so very much in the barbarian land of his choice.

Schteveo said...

Anon,
seriously, let's offer HLF what he says he can't find. An opposing view without BS and right wing hate. I made the offer and I was probably the loudest about ousting HLF. I meant what I said, give it a chance.

As I said, the balls in his / her court.

Tea Bagger said...

naw, the balls are in his boyfriends mouth

eat me said...

I will agree to let HLF stay if he can answer one question without denigrating me...

why was it OK & encouraged to bash Bush BUT if we bash Obama we are malcontents?

Get rid of all parasites.

It's easier for a civilized and sane person to act uncivilized and insane than for an insane and uncivilized parasite to act sane and civilized.

So I say, "off with his head"

Schteveo said...

OK, let's offer a laurel, and hardy handshake to HLF.
