Author Topic: Stop feeding outrageously obvious trolls, please.  (Read 5819 times)


The average forum user.
When you see a post that is clearly a troll, bait, or someone otherwise trying to elicit a reaction, ignore it. When you see that person posting the thread across the entire forum, ignore it.
There is no need for everyone to make fools of themselves because they think they look funny.

damn patricks face made me laugh

then it gets deleted and noone ever remembers about it

Pretty sure you just used this reason as an excuse just to make a drama thread lol. No matter how bad you want people to not feed trolls people posting stuff like this won't stop 'em.

Usually, at least, but it's not rare for Badspot to simply be offline so a troll's thread ends up being strangely active with people trying to be funny.

yeah, i have so much to gain from making a drama thread, i was just waiting for the excuse

I agree with this 100%. Too many kids thinking theyre hilarious, making themselves look like fools

As true as this is, the second part of Ide's post is right. Remember that topic Adin made about the correct way to make a drama topic?

It was good (to some people), but then it died, faded to obscurity, and very few people actually remember it now-a-days.

Now, again, that doesn't change the fact that what you're saying is true.

It just means that unless this gets stickied or constantly bumped, the wisdom you're imparting will be lost to time.

This is true, but honestly, it's not going to help.

You are either being an attention whore or you are just plain dumb.

people have straight up killed themselves because they fed the troll

do yourself and everyone a favor: dont respond to trolls

i dont see a problem in responding to troll posts because if the responder isnt handicapped the only thing it will do is make the troll look like an idiot for a long time

if we're talking about the long run, it's better not to waste your time with responding, even dropping a snarky comment validates their stuffty existence

i'm half-curious as to how you arrived at this conclusion

You done goofed Taboo! Drama threads are supposed to be about specific people and their actions. I'm sorry :(

i'll be sure to ban him from my server
