  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,281 ✭✭✭DeadBankClerk


    why do you read trolls at all??


  • Moderators, Music Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 9,389 Mod ✭✭✭✭Lenny


    Because you reply to it.

    Is there a need for people to spam in the first place?

    And maybe if they did spam other topic's maybe they'll be notice, and they'll relise how bad the spam looks, and then maybe stop smile.gif

    I think people would prefer if you didn't spam at all. Spamming is not trolling. Actually spamming is sadder then trolling as it shows you have no imagination, where as a Troll writes to create replies.

    Lets be honest Whitelancer, you really don't have a case. Especially with posts like these.

    Oh yea, just look at pages 23, 23,24 of that thread and you'll see how pathetic you's look. Even Richindub thought you's were sad and he's king of the Trolls.

    Sad and pathetic is having 5000 real posts Hobbes.

    Have to disagree with that one. Having 5,000 real posts means you actually had something worthwhile to say the best part of 5,000 times. Having a couple of thousand complete spam posts, on the other hand, means you're a twat.

    This from a man who has 1395 posts in six months rolleyes.gif

    Hobbes has been here since this board started, which is about three years now if memory serves - you'd have over 8000 posts by now if you been on as long - however most of Hobbes' posts have been at least semi-interesting.

    In conclusion, shut up.

    thats exactly how i feel. i mean does ANYONE actually take trolls seriously??



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 27,645 ✭✭✭✭nesf


    Apparently yes.

    And you were so close to 1000 posts on it, before it was locked.


    What difference does how many posts a person have make anyway? Apart from the "nifty" title system, it really doesn't serve much of a purpose.

    LOL. Everyone already explained why that comment was stupid. smile.gif

    I think the boards have been around longer then 3 years. I've been in the US 3 years (end of next month) and they were around a while before I came here.

    No actually they didnt explain how it was stupid, just that i spammed a few hundred posts and yours are all real.
    That has nothing to do with what i said.

    That doesnt dispute it, just says all your posts are real.

    He says i would have more posts than you if i joined when you did and yet ignores the fact that a 1/4 of my posts are on trolls.

    So no-one said it wasnt sad and pathetic just that spamming is stupid mmmk.

    It was locked because it was discussed by the admins and we thought it might be straining the machine. We've had UBB fall over because of super long threads (any one remember Blades attempt to get the longest thread?) before.

    It wasnt planned to stop it before 1000, but thats the way it happened.

    "Math is hard"

    If I was to start posting the same time as you I would based on my current average have roughtly 860 posts (approx). That would put you ahead of me. So it was funny because you were making fun of my total when your total is actually higher (but then when you have to explain the joke it's not funny).

    While 1/4 of your posts are on trolls, I wonder what my percentage is? probably less then 1% I would guess.

    hmm if having that amount of real posts over the time that hes been here(with minimum spam) is sad and pathetic.....you have to wonder what, having the amount of posts that you have for the amount of time youve been here(1/4 being spam), is ?

    I'm just pointing out that you're tripping your self up by even saying that....

    I have free internet at home, i can use it whenever i want for as long as i want.
    What i dont have is a half decent pc to play games on.
    So tell me, why the **** would i pay £15 to spam trolls?

    LOL smile.gif Ok Shaman you can read all the posts for me. Although you'll probably tell me they are all about B+W


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,601 ✭✭✭Kali


    I mean if the poor guy is so enthralled with his post count and it boosts his ego, leave him be.

    I only pity new boards users who have to read through reams of crap before they decide to disregard certain users posts altogether.

    Cmon' the UBB developers with the ignore option, surely a system call to grep -v $muppet can't be that hard smile.gif
