One thing that never fails to make me laugh is when some paranoiac whines about why they got banned from some other forum. They are like every criminal....I didn't do anything.....lol
Then there's the other side of things too... Some troll or mischief maker creates and starts an outragious biased thread and rather than ignore that person so the thread can die an early death, people keep posting back to them, sometimes trolling the troll themselves. (not saying I'm not guilty of that myself... lol)...
It goes on and on, can get right out of hand with regular posters sometimes 'banding' together, backing each other up, egging and winding up the troll in what appears to be like a game of sorts. Naturally, the troll responds back, though mostly in a defensive manner... that is the intent isn't it?
And when the thread has finally outlived itself, some people who have contributed towards winding up the troll, then make a big hoo haar complaining why the troll wasn't banned... Yet it's pretty obvious that if they had ignored and not responded in the first place, it would have never gone to that extreme...
A troll cannot survive without an eager responding audience...
panting puppy dogs...
