    I, Forum Troll

    I stand guilty of trolling. I'm not allowed to discuss specific infractions, but that is not my purpose. This is a confession.

    The truth is, I have been guilty of "pushing the (trolling) envelope" for a very long time. I have constantly tweaked my titles and twerked my body text for the MAXIMUM I CAN GET AWAY WITH. I often try to incite others into responding by coming as close as humanly possible to the boundaries of the rules without breaking them here at MMOC. And frankly, I'm quite good at it. But all the more reason I should be ashamed.

    I am ashamed because I have given in to the same social depredations that the mass media is guilty of, driving wedges into discussions when I should be facilitating them. Just know that if you were affected by my actions, it was never personal... I crossed a terrible threshold to elicit responses, and subsequently became the thing I always hated. I would like to apologize to the community. I am sorry...



    ...BUT more importantly, shouldn't WE ALL be a little sorry? Who here hasn't been guilty at one time or another?
    Would anyone else want to take this time to make a confession?

    I thought that was what it was all about.

    Making random threads on the offtopic forums is not trolling. It's idiotic at it's best. Most people who call themselves trolls suck at being trolls.

    And looking into your post/thread history there is close to nothing indicating trolling...though it does show you have a really boring life (4 pages of created threads...).

    All I ever see on the internet these days is the miss usage of the word troll.

    Agreed. Mods here think everything is a troll the when people like Jayburner come around (obvious troll) they do nothing. I had infractions and bans for joke people in the post thought were funny but some butthurt mod didnt.

    I meant to say, care to sit out for a round. Wrong golf metaphor.

    This one time in high school I broke into a girl's locker and stole her gym clothes (t shirt/spandex shorts) then took them home.

    Smelled them, wore them, and then jerked off while wearing them. In that order.

    I did this for about a week then I stopped smelling them because it was less girl and more man sweat.

    You're honestly not as good as you think you are, all I see is a bunch of bad one liners, and arguing for the sake of arguing is so blantanly obvious, too much free time.

    edit: What I meant to say was that I was good at following the rules.

    Well, I mean, those are your metrics then. I never said my one-liners weren't bad, and the arguing aspect should just be a given.

    What about high alert for run-on sentences?
