RamdomChances Posted July 14, 2004 Share Posted July 14, 2004 Trolls why do you do it are you just bored, or seeking attention? Why do people respond to them. I know they can be really annoying but you are not going to win any arguments because they are just not reseptive to any other views. Responding only encorages them and gives them a greater oppetunity to reply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neither Tony will survive Doc , this one is marginally less irritating though. He does like the troll label as a retort though , perhaps he will make it after all?

Responding only encorages them and gives them a greater oppetunity to reply. Don't take it so seriously Random, it's just a forum - no need to be so serious. Sorry mate, couldn't resist it - anyway, I hope by 'Trolls' your not reffering to my brother Ambo cause he wasn't a troll he was my alter ego.

john b good Posted July 14, 2004 Share Posted July 14, 2004 Oh well , hope to see Tony in 30 days , or sooner under another brige... I believe that if we see tony in 30 years it will be 30 years too soon. Of all the <deleted> who have been posting in recent times he is the best qualified to be inaugurated into the "<deleted> hall of fame" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Insight Posted July 14, 2004 Share Posted July 14, 2004 Never knew what a "troll" was until I joined this forum - at least it's taught me something Also never thought you could match somebody like Erco, yet more of them keep appearing! Could they all have the same Mum (who was once their Dad) ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnniey Posted July 14, 2004 Share Posted July 14, 2004 What is a troll? In reply to my first post on this board someone said troll. If it ain't good I will write the guy(whattado) a pm, and tell him exactyly what to do! Johnniey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stroll Posted July 14, 2004 Share Posted July 14, 2004 Puzzled me as well when I first joined. It is somsbody who wants to provoke, annoy, get a reaction and making pointless postings with no informative content. No smart remarks about me defining myself now, please!

chonabot Posted July 14, 2004 Share Posted July 14, 2004 I think after a while here , most of us can provoke etc without the tag , but if someone enters the fray after only a few posts , they qualify for that splendid tag. Tony being one of the "special" cases. He wasn't too bad though in comparison... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He wasn't too bad though in comparison... Not sure if Tony was a troll? Anyway i would suggest the best way forward would to make the forum subscription fee based,a yearly nominal 1 or 2k TB would not be out of the way,this would clear out all the trolls.

kwiz117 Posted July 15, 2004 Share Posted July 15, 2004 To Admins, 1. Why don’t you provide a search function in member profile where others can go and read the previous postings of that member? Do you already have this feature? I have not seen it. That will stop this for sure. Reason is they always start with a higher count. 2. or charge a member fee to post. (You can offer some free postings to keep the guys turning away) kwiz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
