We've had quite the little problem with trolls recently, haven't we?

This all screams of Whorella. Ugh.

If you look, this troll is a female according to the little symbol by their username. This person has been around for a long time.

Q.1 Who is "WE"?
Q.2 What "Problem"?
Q.3 What is a troll? and why are they distracting?

Enlighten me, please?

A1. "We" as in those at Hipbase.
A2. The problem has been a few trolls lately (there was one a few weeks ago with the name gordisgay).
A3. Trolls are people who join the forum yet have no interest in adding anything beneficial to it. They make posts that are either antagonistic or competely non-sensical. They are a waste of space that could otherwise be devoted to stimulating debate and conversation.

Hi Jeff

A1. "We" as in those at Hipbase.

Wow, "You" are pretty protective, eh? Taking care of all of us. Are you sure there is something dangerous out there?

It seems to me that is their nature... debate and conversation. You may be surprised at what you may benefit from a non-sensical post. Possibly?

We project our beliefs and judgments outward; these return to us as our experiences of others, of history, of life, of matter. Each of us dreams our own world -- this means that each of us is ultimately responsible for our own creation. And therefore, each of us can change any of the rules governing our world at any time, resulting in a completely different world-view and a completely different world.

Yeah ok Neo. What a bunch of nonsensical garbage. I'm not sure what's more ridiculous: this mystical new-age tripe you're spewing, or the fact that you postulate these absurb premises with such conviction. That's why I'm wondering if you're merely a troll or if you actually believe this nonsense. I'm guessing that both points are true: you're an insane troll.

I feel stupid for responding to the original post. I really only added fuel to the fire.

[SoylentGreg]

Say, Kev, you weren't responsible for this page, were you?

Anyway, I say we just not respond to troll posts, at all. That's the easiest way to get rid of them. Let me be the first.

[Josh]

nope... and thanks for not responding :lol:
