I used to catch fish that way. But, Mott is after a different catch. I am out of her/his game.

Shoals Lover and Mott are examples of trolls. Mott makes posts simply to provoke and get a response, not to discuss anything. Shoals Lover will post strange replies that make no sense at all, flood the forum with threads, and copy/paste random junk.
Troll is simply a word for a disruptive poster. The best way to handle a troll is to put them on ignore.

We now live in the world of the offended. A small group here will not dictate to me how or when I post. It seems the norm on message boards now is to label someone with a name if you can't stay up with them in an argument. There is indeed some very lowlife people here!

Labels are earned and the purpose of a forum is not to "stay up" with someone in an argument.
You make my point too easily.
Thanks,

quote:The term troll actually used to mean something years ago. Unfortunately, these days it generally means someone who posts stuff I don't like/agree with.

Okay, now I know what a Troll is...
Of course, I am not going to block this certain person, nor am I going to try being nice anymore, because I have never had ONE SINGLE nice word from 'this person'... only insults.
