i am the one who reported him
OFF WITH HiS HEAD!!!
i am the one who reported him
How does that make Flashy a troll?
What is your definition of an internet troll?
Troll (Internet) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopediaIn Internet slang, a troll is someone who posts inflammatory, extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community, such as an online discussion forum, chat room or blog, with the primary intent of provoking other users into a desired emotional response[1] or of otherwise disrupting normal on-topic discussion.
I just looooove how people play naive here!
You baited him! Just be a man enough and admit it!
Flashy was just a bit too naive in his convo with you guys!
Did he cross a line, yes!
was it his fault, NO!
He posted and got-YOU ARE A TROLL part!
Why, thank you sugar!^Plus, it just winked at me suggestively and then showed me it's ass... That's a heckuva panda you've got there!
LOL. Talk about the pot calling the kettle black.???
Ah...so. You behave one way in your own place but when your a guest somewhere else, it's another thing and you have no obligation to be civil. OK.This is not my site, and I'm not obligated to behave here as if it is. As I have indicated elsewhere, that is much of the allure here for me.
It is very relevant if you are going to cry about other people going off topic in "your" thread... if you're going hit the report button because someone whacked you back with some insults. As far as impugning your character, well I didn't put the words in your mouth. You wrote them.What I said to another person on another thread under different circumstances is not relevant to this discussion, unless YOU are the one seeking a character assassination here.
Very few of us are angels here and sometimes we write stuff we might later regret. You are no better than most others.
I left it out on purpose so I could point out right now that the big bad troll Flashy had been very patient with the guy for three posts before he called him an asshole when he just didn't get the point. Whereas you leaped on the poor noob with all guns blazing first post. I used it to point out your double standard. Not only do you hold Flashy and others to a different standard here, you claim to behave differently on other websites. I'd call what you do here trolling. It certain fits the definition you posted above.Furthermore, you conveniently left out the part where the very next post in that thread after mine was your beloved Flashy himself agreeing with my remarks towards the noob troll.
So, thanks for your concern, but it is clear that neither objectivity nor fairness are on your agenda here.
Whichever the case, I'm done with your disingenuous crap.
Flashy's mistake was taking the bait of insults and character assassination directed at him by two other posters. Given the content of those posts, I think very few of us would turned the other cheek or merely hit the report button. I would have hit back as well.
In your case that would be, 'For the love of God, go troll someone else's thread! ' I dont understand who someone who claims to be a moderator can not understand that this is baiting, insulting and character assasination. I originally read the thread out of interest in the oil spill. It was clear from the posts that there was history between you and Flashy, but it was you who accused him of trolling. His post was not unreasonable, maybe you need a bit of distance from the situation to see that. Next I found Flashy had been banned, wondered why and found all this. I would judge that you are using the letter of the law to create an injustice.Hmmm... As the OP of the thread, I've read every last word of it... Can you go ahead and quote the posts and names of these "two other posters" who baited him with "insults and character assassination" please?
Or perhaps you would like to re-read the thread and modify your statement?
This could morph into a welcome back thread very soon.
If he comes back that is.

Then why do it? All it serves is to reinforce a chilling effect on the sanctioned member and others who take notice of "regulation" around here.A week ban ain't shit.
That's the entire point man.Then why do it? All it serves is to reinforce a chilling effect on the sanctioned member and others who take notice of "regulation" around here.
