Discordia and Christianity

[Cain]

I don't see how that constitutes a troll in any way.

[Verbal Mike]

You mean besides the fact the same poster posted the same thing a year ago?

[Cain]

The only people trolling here are the people self-trolling by crying about trolls all the time.

Do I really have to give the talk about trolls to you all again?  With Cram's useful introduction?  Because it seems most of you chose to ignore that lesson, especially with Janvier. 

Seems to me that maybe such a lesson didn't sink in the first time, and its time to acquaint you with it again.  Maybe with somewhat more empahsis, so that you all don't forget the minute someone doesn't act the way you expect them to.

Or maybe some of us just don't care.  Simply because you say it doesn't make it true.

I don't buy this poster as genuine, so I stop paying attention to it.  And will stop responding to it.  Simple as that.

Maybe its a troll, maybe not, but I think it is and will treat it as such.  If I was getting worked into a frenzy over the whole thing, like when people were calling every poster "eric" or "daruko" I would consider that reaction as valid, but as it is it just comes off to me as condescending.

You don't know any better than anyone else if its troll or not. 

[Cain]

Well if you're ignoring him, I'm clearly not talking to you, because that was the entire idea behind my little troll talk a while back.

But what's a little thing like that when you can take the cheap shot, right?  If I don't know, no-one else knows either, and I'm not the one going out of my way to try and label someone's communications as worthless and deliberately provocative on the basis of no evidence.

This poster has been called a troll for days for being a bit dim and asking questions.  Oh teh noes, not questions.  I'm almost tempted to bring some actual trolls here, just because this place clearly has no idea what an actual troll is.  And of course, you'll always get some idiots who then decide to "troll the troll", because they cannot help themselves.  And if Paikayu is a troll, then you are doing what he wants by reacting.  And if he's not, well congratulations - you've just decided to have a go at someone for no reason at all.

FFS, the fact I even have to explain this is putting my teeth on edge.  I don't know and neither does anyone else.  Asking questions is not trolling.  Being immature is not trolling.  Not understanding is not trolling.

I know my credit around here is already at a full time low, and that I can expect to be disparaged for even voicing an opinion on several subjects, but if I know nothing else, I know how to troll.  How about some of you try to listen to someone who may have some practical experience, before running your mouths and fingers off without reason?

this.

[LMNO]

point well taken, Cain.

Pai, I'm still happy to answer any questions you may have.

[hooplala]

I didn't mean that as a shot Cain, sorry if it seemed that way. 

[Jasper]

Cain,

My impression of Paiyaku is that he is a troll because he can get great explanations in droves and still seem to think being a Discordian is all about being cartoonishly crazy and evil, hating Xtians, and "Mindfucking" people.

I've never had much aptitude for internet trolling, I'm the first to admit; when it comes to trolling, I defer to my betters.  However my feeling of incredulity at Paiyaku's difficulty understanding what we're saying keeps me from treating him as anything but a troll.  Whether intentional or not, he has the quality of a troll to my senses.

And dude, we've never been best of amigos AFAIK, but my impression is that you're not at any forum cred deficit.  If we made a "Who here dislikes Cain?" thread, it would likely fill up with joke alts and off-topic fluff, accompanied by flaming the OP.

Jackass.

[Abramelin]

I agree to Cain.

I prefer to focus on the facts, and fact is this thread induced a remarkable result:

Somehow all compiled together like that, our answers seem brilliantly cohesive.

You appear to be operating under the misapprehension that people would openly declare themselves.

I could name names, but it would only create an even bigger shitstorm, so why bother?
