(Anonymous) 2013-06-14 12:22 am (UTC)(link)Own your failure. We are not to blame.
Re: Guys. Guys.
Own your own failure, following around someone you dislike. Oh, wait, you aren't. You're posting anon.
Re: Guys. Guys.
But there were evidently people for whom it wasn't. And they attempted to have a good faith discussion. And they got caught in your troll net. And that's potentially a handful of people who won't bother to make the investment in having a conversation with somebody who seems to have a divergent opinion the next time. Because F!S is full of trolls, right? So why put the time and effort into getting into anything that looks like it might be controversial when there's a chance the person you're trying to converse with has no intention whatsoever of following through. Their aim is to hook you, and then try to make you angry or upset in n moves.
And as a one off, it wouldn't be a problem. And injokes from regulars that people miss who aren't regulars aren't a problem. Sarcastic humour, bitchiness and taking the piss aren't the problem. But the constant drip of bad faith arguments is just so incredibly bad mannered.
Not that I'll do anything about it besides bitch occasionally, and possibly gaffiate for a few months again if I get too fed up. But I get the feeling of late that other people are also of my opinion on how clever and entertaining trolling isn't.
Sorry - that turned into a generalised rant in your direction, and I didn't mean to target you individually. Cause it's more of a culture thing here right now, I think.

(Anonymous) 2013-06-14 06:35 am (UTC)(link)Agreed. And a big part of why I don't frequent here anymore. I check in now and then but rarely post. And I don't mean just chard, it's more a general trend that the comm seems to have come to, which I don't find fun or funny. And it's sad because for awhile I was coming and posting everyday and having so much fun and so many interesting discussions. But slowly there's been this change to this kind of trolling attitude and I just can't be bothered.
I'm hoping that over time we'll get new members or the trolls will get tired and move on and maybe I'll sign back in and join in. But for now I check in once a week or whatever and see if anything's changed and when I see threads like this I know it hasn't and I move on.
Re: Guys. Guys.
It makes it seem like there's no point in trying to have a conversation or get invested, because it keeps on being trolls.
