is getting out of hand in areas of the board that are meant for serious discussion. (Lounge, tech talk, classified)

I am repeatedly attacked, as well as many other users (http://www.thewolfweb.com/message_topic.aspx?topic=620108)

My threads are deleted because the majority of the users are using trolling remarks. (Your topic, FS: Original Four Loko, has been moved from Classifieds to Trash Bin by synapse.) led by Merbig.

There is a time and a place for trolling. That time is 24-7. That place is chit chat.

The users on this board ask questions but have no desire to know the hard truth. Descending opinions are not a type of trolling!!!

Name calling and character defamation is:


wdprice3: dumbassboy, I think I get where you are going...

David0603: Oh wait. This is the pizza guy?!?!? It all makes so much more sense all of a sudden.

It's funny once in a while, but it's condemningly annoying when it follows you around like a swarm of mosquitoes.

I would love to have a decent conversation with people.

suspend lewisje!

11/7/2011 6:29:14 PM

hahaha, i posted serious questions which you ignored. i trolled in that thread as much as you did.

11/7/2011 6:35:13 PM

Your question was answered numerous times throughout the thread and you asked it again using different words.

Name calling and character inflating are also trolling.

I wasn't trolling. After all, you did say:

"Name calling and character defamation is:"

That's not trolling, that's flaming. And calling you a dumbassboy is "the hard truth."

However, I will tell you what is trolling:

Quote :

"Trolling is trying to get a rise out of someone. Forcing them to respond to you, either through wise-crackery, posting incorrect information, asking blatantly stupid questions, or other foolishness. However, trolling statements are never true or are ever meant to be construed as such. Nearly all trolled statements are meant to be funny to some people, so it does have some social/entertainment value."

I would say the thread you linked to with your comments is a great example of trolling, as you are intentionally being foolish and posting incorrect information with the intent of pissing them off:

Quote :

"You know your thinking is too small to comprehend how you're getting played?"

Quote :

"This is comparable to a student saying they shouldn't take calculus because they only use remedial math in their lives."

Quote :

"The theater of the absurd. Here's a better example: If you buy a new car, how much can you sell the same car for on craigslist without touching it or moving it? It's the same car, sitting in the same lot, untouched."

Quote :

"David is officially cut off from this conversation for being immature."

And that's just on page 5. I'm not even going to go through your sewage of stupid on the other pages.

11/7/2011 6:57:24 PM

Those are 100% appropriate responses to trolling posts. I tried to walk david and wdprice to the right answer, but instead I was bombarded with absurdity, making my mission impossible.

Since we were in the lounge, I take everyone's comments seriously. I have to assume they're serious.

Oh look. Another troll response. Taking the position that your answer/opinion is the right answer is arguably the definition of trolling.

How about some more examples of GeniuSxBoY's trolling?

Do you remember this gem?

"I'm not drunk or high If someone came upto you and told you to make something that weighed 500,000 pounds float in mid-air, you'd say "yeah right, that's impossible" Yet look at what we have here: If someone came upto you and told you to make something that weighed 200,000,000 pounds float on water, you'd say "yeah right, that's impossible" Yet look at what we have here: Do you think whatever created us wanted us to have these things? Electricity, Atomic Bombs, Periodic Tables...I think not. These are hacks that exist in the universe. Our universe is coded and we're hacking the system. If our universe is coded, and we can manipulate it, that means EVERYTHING is possible. If we can hack the universe, then we can hack any computer you may conceive. But the shitty thing is... if everything is possible then an unhackable system is possible, too. but how can it exist if a hacker can always hack everything? Which leads us to... If God can do anything, can God create a rock that he can't lift? If he can, then he can't do everything because he can't lift the rock. If he can't, then he can't do everything. You have to conclude that it's impossible. Nope. you don't have to conclude it's impossible. Aircraft carriers and Airplanes are simple. In less than a 100 years, we'll have space stations and colonizing other planets. Earthquakes and hurricanes will be soft gusts of wind compared to solar storms and black holes that we'll have to battle against. I shouldn't say 100 years, because we'll figure out how to live 1000 years, the only way to travel between galaxies before we invent teleportation and find wormholes. After that, I do believe, the game is over. We conquered the universe."

Found in Tech Talk's Bitcoin thread:

And how about your Photoshop CS5 thread. Why do you think it was trashed?
Here is a cached version of the thread because it has been trashed:

http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:r4uvZi-hKzMJ:brentroad.com/message_topic.aspx%3Ftopic%3D618194%26page%3D1+GeniuSxBoy+Is+anything+fast+enough+to+run+photoshop&cd=1&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=us

Seriously, this guy is bitching about trolling (probably trolling while bitching) and he's the biggest offender on this site of doing it in inappropriate sections. I mean we all do it from time to time, there's no denying it, but this guy takes it to the extreme.

So go ahead qntmfred and call everyone else out for trolling and absolve GeniuSxBoY of any and all wrong doings.

11/7/2011 7:19:13 PM

That whole post is philosophical. Do you not recognize philosophy as a form of thinking?


Merbig, the CS5 was trashed because I was trolled. The thread was turned into a joke and the moderator who trashed the thread was BobbyDigital who hates mes as much as you.

It's apparent. Nothing is hidden.

And no, the thread was trashed because you started posting stupid shit. You got some legitimate help, you probably took it, and then started trolling because you got what you needed.

11/7/2011 7:33:03 PM

It's my thread, guy. Why would I troll myself?

11/7/2011 7:36:39 PM

Many trollers start a thread to troll the people who reply to them. Look at TSB.

11/7/2011 7:38:16 PM

Perhaps it's their real opinion and you don't recognize it.

11/7/2011 7:43:12 PM

Nah.

11/7/2011 7:55:58 PM

I used a credit card to pay for my premie.

What say you, GeniuSxBoY?

11/7/2011 7:59:26 PM

If you got back 3%, you're ruining America. Why do you hate America? Are you a Nazi-Communist-Jew, Muhammed?

11/7/2011 8:01:30 PM

Actually, for TWW, I only got 1% back .

11/7/2011 8:03:39 PM

What kind of response do you want from me?

11/7/2011 8:59:44 PM

That's the perfect response. One of confusion because a troll doesn't know how to proceed. I think we've finally won!

11/7/2011 9:17:14 PM

you'd have to be a dumbass to think this thread would get you anything....

So you think this is a game. Pretty damning evidence.

11/7/2011 9:40:18 PM

Right. I don't take you seriously. Nobody does.

11/7/2011 9:48:20 PM

That's a personal problem. Get off my dick.

11/7/2011 9:53:47 PM

GeniuSxBoY, you had a potentially legitimate argument against the widespread use of credit cards in that thread. but you decided to be a condescending prick about it, so your credibility in creating this thread in the first place isn't all that stellar to begin with.

if you or anybody else sees "trolling" in forums where helpful behavior is strongly preferred (primarily the lounge, classifieds and study hall), the appropriate response is not to respond with more trolling and name calling of your own, but instead to send the mod(s) of that section a PM with a link and short description of the problem.

11/7/2011 11:05:48 PM

if you feel like you are having a problem with people on the site then the rule is to contact a mod or admin via PM.
