when you engage with the trolls

[MitchiestInge]

. . . is it a personal thing (actually engaging emotionally) or are you communicating with a wider, more silent audience or are there other motivations?

I can't work out why more people don't ignore them, but every now and then the exchanges are unintentionally funny or interesting - although mostly it gets very dull very quickly. Wondering what's in it for them too.

Noooo, hate lemon puffs...

What's with the Jaffa Hates?

This doesn't mean I'm a troll, does it?

I'd missed it. Thanks for mentioning it Pan.

edd - if it looks like a troll, and smells like a troll, then it's highly likely to be a troll, and you don't get the benefit of the doubt in these circs. And I don't feed trolls. Just being polite in explaining this to you on this occasion.

Why no benefit of the doubt? If someone is a suspected troll, or even called one, doesn't mean it is so

Proles . I might have to disagree with you for the first time ever!

The Oreo is mighty, but the humble water biscuit must never be underestimated.

Iced gems...the work of the devil

if I could only have one more biscuit before my sticky end it should probably be a crumbly stem ginger cookie

On a more serious note - I am in total agreement with the posts made by BIWI, Pan and dittany.

The trolls we get here are a special breed - they are here to disrupt, and they stick by the rules in order to underhandedly undermine.

It is a sort of cyber, group gaslighting actually.

The ultimate biscuit has to be the ginger nut. Surely!

Goodness, Bob, I am surprised you have time to come back to this thread

Aren't you talents being better utilised elsewhere ?

Please refer to exhibit A.

why do we never have any biscuits in this stupid house?

Oops. Sorry Mitchy. You can have a virtual one...

Thanks sunshine. Will make these instead though, tomorrow.

oh dear

busted

Are there any regular long term posters, who all manage to rub along together, that this poster hasn't directed his anger at yet?

I like them Hovis crackers, the biscuity types that are more like digestives
