I thought since we were abusing the Most Idiotic Statement thread then I could see how well this thread would work.

WARNING: THIS IS NOT FOR FLAME WARS

Rather this is for those who wish to show others the blunt rudeness or shortsided nastiness of others. If you see a post directed as an Ad-Hominim, Dodge-Answered, One-Liner Critique, ect.. post it here.

If T-Man were still here I could show you wonderful examples of the Troll Patrol in action, but I guess we may have to find our own...

If finding one I will post it here, in the meantime, if you have one please share.

I am not into responding to atheist nitwits who have nothing better to do with their shallow lives than put down others who are living their philosophies instead of merely talking endless about them on internet debate forums.

Gee, I don't know. That one qualifies nicely for the Most Idiotic thread as well, considering where it's posted (an internet debate forum).

Sorry, Kame, but if Captain Chaos understands and agrees, that's all that matters to me.

Trying to get someone half my age to understand something when that someone insists I don't know what I'm talking about is pointless.

You're a no-factor in this discussion, as far as I'm concerned.

You fall under the category of "confused" that I alluded to earlier, and I doubt you would be able to get past your own mentality in order to understand.

Gee, thanks for educating me about the concept that I invented :)

True. That, and the fact that many of the people that he was addressing were not atheists.

Fonceai; I agree with the other members who have told me you are an asshole. Now I believe them. Sorry mods. Only agreeing with others here. I'm done.

Always nice to see people blatantly violating a rule and not seeing any yellow or red infraction flags.

Good modding!!

**Chris** · Feb 15, 2007, 01:30 am

good reporting! We cant see it all even thought there are still more of us.

Kame did receive a red card for that first one :rolleyes:

Also I am moving this to misc.

Jimmy the Pro · Feb 15, 2007, 02:45 pm

So far these are pretty good exapmles of Trolling, but for real...don't use these troll messages to push your own agenda.

Just post, let us see, and keep the comments neutral.

Thanks

@Idmaniac

Fair enough. Here's a good example of trolling...

It's amusing to see theists scoff at religions invented today and never considering their own religion could be equally contrived.

Originality isn't the issue.

Neutrally speaking, I always find it to be "trolling" when someone makes a comment, and then when that comment is challenged, they turn around and say it isn't relevant, or part of the topic, or a non-issue.

I hope this post itself isn't trolling!

Fonceai · Feb 16, 2007, 12:13 pm

Awww... that's not nice.

I think the point was more to paste the quotes that demonstrate trolling.

Autolykos · Feb 16, 2007, 12:21 pm

I never said I was a nice guy. <smirk>

If that was the case, then I stand corrected.

Interpretation is up to the recipient, not the speaker.

Then everything you've stated is terribly insulting to me... on par with calling a black man "ni***r". You owe me an Apology...

Trolls be advised... saying something like this in response to that kind of comment... and having that be your only response to a post... is the kind of trolling that makes you... well... a troll.

Jimmy the Pro · Feb 16, 2007, 02:39 pm

Wow Fonc, I think you have found the # incident of trolling right there.

Using that word is just plain rude and distasteful.

Fonceai · Feb 16, 2007, 03:36 pm

Comparing a post to being called that word... and especially pulling that word out of thing air?

Drama Troll.

Fonceai · Feb 16, 2007, 04:36 pm

More trollishness

Person B, you should be banned for your obsession with baiting people into trying to prove their explanations, when really nothing in our universe has been fully proven

You should be banned for being concurrently atheist and a fettered thinker

First the Drama Troll... now the Parrot Troll.

What the Parrot Troll does is repeat your words back to you as though it illustrated or proved something.

Kamehameha34 · Feb 16, 2007, 04:47 pm

Sweet. I hope he realizes how futile it is to troll, now that he realizes the calibur of discussion it entails.

Laugh out loud.
