    :rolleyes: sick to death of hearing this default response in AH, and it crops up in numerous other forums. It's like if someone has a controversial or un-PC outlook on things, especially if it involves girls or relationships/social interactions the OP gets blasted [with p!ss...another jaded retort] for his POV.

    Actually, i rather like "out there" and very controversial types...yeah you get the blatant trolling types just looking for a reaction, but...many OP are legit in what they say and belive.

    While i may not agree with what they have to say i loathe when said posters get crucified and the threads get locked, to my mind this forum is VERY cliquey...if you're not in with the cool crew you get chewed up and locked down :(

    "Un-PC" is shorthand for bigot. Stop being a bigot.

    Who Trolls the Trollers?

    "The OP is just trolling"


    Sometimes its justified - and we can either say that or bore the pants off you with some long winded waffle instead.

    Which is the better option over all?

    Yeah but you seem to be forgetting the stage that PC is at these days. Being un-PC or in your words bigoted is, in many cases, OTT these days. Depends on your standards when judging what is PC and what isn't.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,059 ✭✭✭Buceph


    I'm an optimist. So it has to be trolling. I don't believe anyone is that stupid.

    So what are you saying? Are you saying that PC has gone... ooh, I don't know... mad?

    I am Rick Astley. Nice to see I still have fans.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,940 ✭✭✭4leto


    I am just to nice, I just could not watch a poor troll starve, I just have to feed them.

    I know,,I know,,I am the real problem.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,919 ✭✭✭Schism


    Also!

    Threads are done over and over again, can people stop coming in simply to post 'Not this again'. Not everybody has read it before, if you don't want to read it don't post.

    I like this we should turn it into the next meme

    I agree say something that goes against the thread and you get post saying he's just trolling

    It doesn't even have to be against the thread, it seems to be becoming the default Ad Hominem to try and dismiss someone people don't agree with.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,940 ✭✭✭4leto


    The OP has a valid point about internet discussions/debates.

    If you go on to a Christian website or an extreme right website and you post something like, no gays and minorities have an equal right to tolerance, peace and aspiration, you will be called a troll.

    Sometime people are called trolls when they go against a boards grind or popular opinion.

    The internet does that it creates a popular consensus eventually we will all think the same, or face reneducation, or worse be accused of trolling.

    Totally agree with the OP, boards is probably one of the worst forums for it on the internet, trying a little too hard to copy 4chan but too afraid to copy 4chans abuse and what not
