    I don't actually agree he is trolling, three threads, pretty polite, just a weird interest.

    Considering the fact that I warned him last April about this and yet he's back again doing the same thing, trolling is exactly what I'd call it.

    OP - you need to join up with katiemac and propose a clothes fetish S & S sub-forum.

    'What is your worst pair' lol!
    I just think trolling has to be on purpose and I doubt that he understands how boards works. Just my opinion of how it looks.
    I'll let him explain his case!
    As a newbie i posted in a few forums that i considered were relavant to the topic , ie Fashion and appearance, social and Personal, And the Waterford forum. I was imediatly shut down without a chance of many replies. As a result i was told i was trolling. This term i didnt understand. I have tried to post the same today as all my threads are closed and again by the same admin i was shut down.

    Given that you reserve the right to ban any user at any stage for any reason and none there can be no such thing as an unjustified ban. Bans require no justification (as you understand it).

    The question of trolling must be addressed seperately from the mere threat of a ban.

    Just because you threatened to ban bluestripe11 if he didn't stop talking about pajamas doesn't make him a troll. He isn't a troll and your saying he is doesn't make him one.

    On the other hand you could legitimately ban him for talking about pajamas given that you had told him that he would be banned if he continued to talk about them.

    This would not be banning someone for trolling but rather for getting stuck in a stupidity filter.

    So, OP, what's the interest in pyjamas? Is it a fashion statement or a way of life - or is it life itself?

    I don't think that you are a troll, you are simply on a global quest, searching for your niche forum.

    What does the term Googling mean?

    To type keywords into google looking for documents that contain a piece of information?

    What do the words 'not everyone is used to the internet mean'?

    I have to say i was surprised to see that thread locked too. If the person wants to talk about pyjamas I don't see why that should be a problem. Even if that's all the person wants to talk about.

    Why not open a pyjama thread in all forums so.....


    He opened several threads across several different forums about pyjamas despite being warned to refrain from doing so? The thread that was placed in F&A, where it should have been IMO, is still open. Don't see what the fuss is really. Learn from it, move on and enjoy boards OP.

    Some people like to stereotype boards users as being obsessed about single issues. Go and talk about something else and prove me wrong? Please?
