I had never considered myself a troll but merely whimsical. However the typical forum participant who seems terribly angry at all times about nearly everything has so often labeled me thus, I must ultimately accept his accusation

I have noted over the years on many different forums his tendency to react even to the most innocent posting, sometimes using the most insulting or even raunchy language. So I'd advise the novice troll to proceed in spite of repeated cries of foul because you'll be attacked no matter what you post

When he assails your most unimpeachable posting and you respond that you had meant no harm but that his reaction seems angry, he responds, "No, not true, I'm not angry, I'm not, I'm NOT, I tell you"

However you will have doubts from time to time, you're permitted to have common emotions. Indeed I ask myself from time to time, "Why do you continue to inflict yourself on all these poor folk"

…... though once you realize how trivial all that contention, the less daunting. As an honest-to-god troll, however, you should expect to be occasionally banned from a site, especially if you should happen to criticize its Admin

While a typical participant is drawn to the Internet forum by its anonymity and the opportunity to vent his repressed visceral umbrage, the typical Administrative position attyracts the member attempting to compensate for a felt lack of power in his everyday existence. So, often he expresses his newfound dominion by denouncing the supposed infractions of a participant, often for the most trivial reason, even throwing you off his forum for a week or two

Big Brother is Watching You

As a form of "punishment" subconsciously he delights even in the permanent, or lifetime, ban, impervious to the objection of his victim who notes, " Hey fellas, even the murderer gets paroled". As a professional troll however you must not let the occasional ban deter you

There are lots more forums

In that connection I take the opportunity herewith to express my most sincere thanks to the a2k Admin, the most liberal such agency I've encountered at any such forum. Almost anywhere else I would have been banned long ago

So apprentice troll, do stick with it. Any specific advice, hints, caution, etc, invited to contact [email protected]

@dalehileman,
Sorry Dale. But your neither a troll nor really whimsical. Really repetitive? Yes. That doesn't constitute a troll be. Being a uberMac fanboy makes you a pain in the butt as well. But you have reasons for your Apple devotion that can deserves forgiveness on that count.

You may be too demanding for what you ask of a FREE web forum. A little humility accepted by yourself and a little restraint on your part could help you in that department.

But are you a troll? Whomever you pissed off apparently doesn't know what the term really means.

Yes so I'v e been advised, delusions of grandeur by the erstwhile journalist

Surely must be a dreadful experience

Oops forgive me Tsar but wasn't that a typo

Grrr, grr, growl

Again, and forgive me if repetitive, over and over, repeatedly, once again, revisited still anon, I wouldn't be the least offended if you were to skip my postings. I even think there's a software facility for the purpose which you should look into

As for repetition in sequential OP's and threads, it's based on the notion that one might attract response from still another participant

In fact I understand that a2k has several active members

I am so relieved by your absolution…...

I don't remember demanding anything

I humbly agree restraint is especially valuable to those most easily offended

Quote:

At first I vociferously denied it on the basis that technically, a participant should consciously strive for the impression but as I said, and yes I'm repeating myself, how can I deny accusations from every direction

Thank you Tsar for explaining that


..so you might wish to define it

Not a typo per se as I was trying yet failed to be poetical on that one particular line.

Scroll bars and longer editing times are two things you asked for ad nauseum.

Ah yes Tsar, ad infinitum

However thanks to my persistence the former is now forthcoming. Are you saying that nobody anywhere at any time should ever make an innocent suggestion to improve the state of the world and must not in any exhibit the slightest persistence

If everybody else like the typical Internet Forum Participant, if minority, were as terribly angry at all times about the slightest infraction of its traditions and supposes that if we were taught from birth to walk on our hands: One or two of us having abandoned the practice (being erstwhile inventors of the shoe) demonstrate to the rest how much easier walking on foot

Determined, even repetitious God help us, we are castigated day and night by our peers, insulted, rejected, forsaken, shunned; hundreds of thousands of words, especially on the Intrernet Forums, rebuking us outcasts. But as I had pondered, why do I persecute you so, I must be a really terrible person

So my most sincerer apologies to all so inclined for my assertions of such staggering fatuity, I hope I have not foreshortened you longevity

But my Friendly Local Nephrologist advises I have only 5 years remaining 'til my kidney gives out, whereupon it's understandable if you wish to throw a party

I lost track how many threads you have opened on the above mentioned topics (and other similar topics). That doesn't include the many countless unrelated threads where you have posted these whiny appeals. As for the so called positive results which you claimed that supposedly came about from your persistence? I believe I read that Robert Gentil reply. He didn't give you an explicit yes to your request. He said he'd consider it at a later time with the emphasis on 'not now.' For the record, I believe that persistence and constant insertion into unrelated topics is why certain someone or someones to label you as a troll. That 'look at me and hear me whine' posts you are well known for writing too often.

Lacking humility in these whiny requests of yours is why many people treat you like an outcast. They're sick of you giving them a digital migraine headache.

@tsarstepan,
Grrr grrr, snarl,, I'm not mad, not at all. I'm not, I say, NO, I'm not


Fellow trolls wherever you are, perhaps we should quit all this, mind our own business, be ashamed of the slightest progress, roll up and end it all as with the British nurse

She can briefly be our new hero. Posthumously we'll be called the Saldhanans

@dalehileman,
Sorry dale, you're not troll material.
Hell, djjd62 is a better at trolling than you, with his use of homophones and puns that avoid the topic altogether in an entertaining way.
Maybe with a bit more practice I'm sure you can be troll material.

That's what I kept telling 'em, I'm just not clever enough, and I don't do it purposely anyhow but that's what they insist immediately before banning me

Hey Dj, do you consider this a compliment
