TROLLS

I think if you're going to take the piss out of someone and don't want them to get the wrong end of the stick, then use smilies to portray your intentions.

A picture (or smilie) tells a thousand words so they say.

Several KBers in here don't use smilies and its difficult to know if they are having you on or not, especially if you don't know them from a bar of soap. I know I bite well if I think they are serious.

I think not using smilies when taking the piss is indicative of trolling.

(un)interesting/concerning fact: The Domestic Abuse Hotline reports many more incidents after the AB's lose than any normal evening.

I agreew ith JR - I don't think we have a trolling prob on here - some of them come and go (Sk8r Boi)......

As for piss taking - well that is expected, I know I don't use smilies

, but then by now

, I would hope no one takes what I say seriously anyway.

The domestic abuse issue is pretty rank alright, no doubt after several beers as well as an AB loss.

BTW - what happened to you for the Brazilian GP ?

Go to any of their gun/sporting/political forums and find out. Americans love to talk about their freedoms. Nothing wrong with that. But when you point out to them that their toll roads are a contradiction..........well as I said go and find out.

Just try mentioning that perhaps the rest of the world might just enjoy a bit of freedom from them and their war-mongering and they really get upset.I briefly used a bike site their and the place was full of meat-heads trying to "out-macho" everyone else with how much they weighed(!!!!),how big their pick-up was,how much chrome the Harley had e.t.c. when in truth most were probably day-dreaming geeks.Some pillock actually said he was on his way to Britain(in his Jeep Cherokee no less,typical of the intelligence)to "blow your fool head off boy".They`re funny for a while but soon get boring.
I`ve been labelled a Troll elsewhere,and possibly in the "Zed thread" but I just speak my mind,which is surely the whole point of any forum.

You sod.

They just keep biting, don't they?

And you hijacked poor Stinkwheeler's thread. Him being a shy, uncommunicative youngster with a self-image problem, too. Shame on you.

Absolutely. I ran into a guy at a party one night who makes a habit of trolling. Knowledgable sod, anyway after a long talk and few bears he told me he collects trophy's. As soon as he is called a troll he places a troll icon on his home page along with the forum site. There's actually guys out there who specilize in this...........not for me. To time consuming.
