Re: FS Pet Peeves

Assuming anything slightly controversial is a troll.

Deciding that because they think it's a troll then no one else should talk about the topic even if they're interested because somewhere someone might feel like they "won".

Thank you.

It can also be dangerous to assume someone who posts something "weird" is a troll. I once assumed someone was and said something very mean, except it turned out the person was serious. Seriously, some people just say things that are a bit off-putting, or their wording is awkward (which was essentially what happened here).

Re: FS Pet Peeves

IA. Controversial secrets themselves too. If they were all nice things why would anyone keep them a secret. Plus, I don't like mods that dismiss anything remotely inflammatory as a troll.

Re: FS Pet Peeves

[(Anonymous)]

To go off of the point about them being secrets for a reason, I feel that way about nasty ones too, where someone'll admit something nasty and be accused of being a horrible person. Who says they're proud? Maybe they're ashamed of it, and it was easier to talk about it on F!S than their flist. (I mean, I've admitted missing the point of specific books and movies on LJ and been dogpiled. I can only imagine admitting to something actually wrong.)

Re: FS Pet Peeves

[(Anonymous)]

Lol, yup. God forbid someone use a secret site for things they don't want to admit to with their name attached... oh. Wait...

Re: FS Pet Peeves

[sarillia]

Hell, sometimes the secret explicitly says they feel guilty and are trying to change and people still yell at them.

AYRT

... you're right. Really, people?

Re: FS Pet Peeves

Also people thinking that anyone reacting to a troll post is "falling for the troll". No, we mostly know those people are trolling. But it's sometimes entertaining to feed trolls on purpose/discuss the points they bring up because even though OP is a troll, there are people around who actually share those opinions.

Re: FS Pet Peeves

[sarillia]

Yep. I don't care if the person is sincere or not. If I'm interested I'm going to talk about it. Besides, most of my reactions and opinions aren't lulzy enough to satisfy a real troll anyway so I doubt most of them would be happy with my response.

Re: FS Pet Peeves

[morieris]

Exactly. If it's something interesting to talk about, why not?

Re: FS Pet Peeves

[mekkio]

Ugh, I hate that.

Re: FS Pet Peeves

[othellia]

This.

Some are obvious, but as a whole we're way to quick to smash the troll button.

Re: FS Pet Peeves

[(Anonymous)]

Yep. I actually DID enjoy Alien Resurrection more than anything else Joss Whedon has done.

Re: FS Pet Peeves

[philstar22]

Agreed. Although, there are times when I hope someone is a troll because whatever was posted was so bad that it being the person's actual opinion is so much worse. But really, people do hold these points of view. Sometimes it is obviously a troll, but FS tends to call troll way to easily.

Re: FS Pet Peeves

[inthecorner]

Ugh, yes, that's annoying as shit. Especially when it's something that's not obviously bait-y, but a different opinion.

Re: FS Pet Peeves

By the same token: assuming that anyone who cares about legit SJ issues is an SJW. We are kinda knee-jerky about that one.
