And for the record, if any of our dearly beloved lunatics are actually trolls, I would always blame you for failing to realize that your insipid "stands" against them - which anyone with a clue sees as the worst kind of look-at-me-ism there is - doesn't do anything to advance the cause you're ostensibly claiming to support, but just continues to give the parasites a host to feed off of.

Also, WWWP - Still a sleeper favorite of mine.

So what you're saying is, look at you?

**** that. Trolls are an integral part of the forum experience and can be more fun than shooting fish in a barrel. Without them we'd have to actually have music discussions. Where's the fun in that?

A good troll has merit. Fine. But that post (or at least what you quoted) wasn't attacking trolls.

Big3, pardon me please, but is your post here directed at someone in particular?

Not really my place to talk on Big3's behalf but I think he is just saying don't feed the trolls. If you ignore them their posts fade away, feed them and you get pages and pages of escalating tension which they thrive on.

With all the backlash at HHBH, I agree. Just ignore him and it won't bother you.

I find HHBH interesting sometimes though negative mostly and whacky. I don't get worked up by his posts, nor do I care much. Whatever.

Just fer the reckerd, i don't know exactly what caused HHBH to say all that nasty stuff, but i'm not about to take it personally. Do i deserve it? To be honest, i probably do in some way. I don't think his descriptions are totally accurate, but i see where they are coming from.

My issue stems more from the fact that this thread is a breeding ground for this type of stuff. As a working adult, i've never seen a bulletin board anywhere i've been employed which exists to facilitate the calling of people out. Anytime i've ever had a problem with someone (in real life) it's been dealt with in private. There's nothing constructive about this thread. It's just waiting for people to come in an trip the f*ck out and then be either ridiculed for it or agreed with.

If he had taken issue with my MO and addressed me in private i might have actually grown a bit. But i guess it's okay in that perhaps someone will just put this toxic dumping ground of a thread to rest. Besides, trollheart's thread about saying nice stuff is much better for everyone. I doubt it'll happen, but if i was a mod, i'd be trying to shine that kinda light instead.

Peace.

As a "working adult" maybe you should get a "working knowledge" of this thing your using called the Internet.
