STFU About Trolls FFS

Tortington · 19/02/2011 22:13

two thread that i have read today, and no doubt there are many many more, where people call the op a TROLL

now

these threads provoked some good debate so, AIBU to scream 'SHUT THE FUCK UP ABOUT TROLLS'

IF IT provokes a good debate, it matters not IMO whether the op is real

subsequent issues and much knowledge and experience is learned from the content of the whole thread.

i am not talking about abusive stuff - just regular stuff

YANBU. If people think the OP is a troll and they have a problem with that, why do they then go on to post on the thread? It doesn't make sense.

ilythia · 19/02/2011 22:16

YANBU. There is a reason I have not been around on MN much lately, and this is why.

fanjoforthemammaries7850 · 19/02/2011 22:17

Threads about threads are a bit shit, especially if one has just posted something and then the poster who posted pretty much just after you goes and starts a thread slagging you off and everyone agrees..nice to read..cheers

fanjoforthemammaries7850 · 19/02/2011 22:29

And the reason I was pissed off that the shit stirring trolls had come back is that several decent posters had left MN because of em. And me. Well, I came back for a bit but am off again.

ilythia · 19/02/2011 22:33

Oh bollocks, what have I missed now?

Tortington · 19/02/2011 22:33

i think you mistake me as someone with a plan

wtf are you on about?

OP posts:
fanjoforthemammaries7850 · 19/02/2011 22:34

Well I made such a comment, you posted right after me, then started this thread, how does it look?

MooMooFarm · 19/02/2011 22:35

What is a troll anyway? Seriously - what does somebody posting on the internet to wind people up have to do with three billy goats and a bridge?

Please explain Confused

Tortington · 19/02/2011 22:37

what thread?

link please

fanjoforthemammaries7850 · 19/02/2011 22:37

And maybe it's a sensitive subject as one such troll accused me of neglecting my DD when she had just got a pretty bad diagnosis . She was at nursery, but it hurt. Anyway if you didn't mean me, it was an unfortunate coincidence. I probably should have stayed off MN a bit longer.

fanjoforthemammaries7850 · 19/02/2011 22:38

It doesn't matter.

If you didn't mean me, I made an arse of myself. No big deal. buggers off

Tortington · 19/02/2011 22:39

i am not talking about abusive stuff - just regular stuff
