That is a troll.

Winding people up, wasting time.

Just think - he could have earned a hundred dollars in the time it took to dream those posts up.

sub and I have shared a beer. but not a binge. mod preview simply means all your posts must be previewed by a mod before they can be live. Personally, I dn't like it because then that means I have to pay attention to your posts but this one member is a special case.

It sounds like an aggravation for both the poster and the moderator. And you're bursting my bubble about paying attention to the posts thing...and here I pictured the moderators waiting with baited breath and thoroughly enjoying the witty, intelligent, and insightful comments from us TV members. whistling.gifwink.png

P.S. and for those who have never had the pleasure of meeting SBK in person and wondering what she is like in real life, she is, in fact, the deadly combination of both intelligence and beauty. thumbsup.gif

Well, here is how I deal with it,

Petty bickering posts deleted. If you can't play in the sandbox like big boys then you won't get to play in the sandbox at all. Harassing another member is the worst kind of troll and one I come down on very hard. So unless you want to spend a few weeks on holiday I would HIGHLY recommend you recall what it is like to be an adult.

Does that qualify for "how to handle trolls" ? (my bolding above)

So Miss sbk ... what happens when the member in question is a (apparently female ... though proven later not to be ... whistling.gif ) a troll, not malicious, but nevertheless, a troll.

A friend (highly respected member and the like .. cough ... laugh.png ) gets into some friendly heavy banter with said troll ... all friendly like ... and gets his first ever warning?

Highly speculative of course and an alien concept to us all ... rolleyes.gif

Just asking like ... biggrin.png

I dunno, perhaps the same thing that happens to people who discuss moderation in public.

If you gen into a firefight and you return fire, prepare to be shot.

As for a Troll, by your own admission, they were not malicious, it then falls into the realm of perception of what each individual believes to be Troll like behaviour.

Sometimes, certain subjects can be classed as Trollish, non malicious, but certainly intended to cause high emotion, othertimes issues can cause a frank exchange of views, when deliberately laid out in the original post, is that a Troll?

Personally, a Troll that is not malicious can be viewed with a certain amount of tolerance, if you believe it to be a Troll, ignore it, destroy the content or just sail merrily on by.

My friend has read the above posts and warmly thanks you for the contribution ... wai.gif

He would, of course, have asked you the question, but he's a bit shy.

Sorry to have bothered you ... biggrin.png
