    I guess what irks me about the latest trend is the lack of worth of that trolling I'm whining about. There is such a thing I think, worth I mean, and if done well can be quite constructive, albeit caustic. I guess by virtue of that I agree with pentomato about the necessity, but the asinine, lazy, name calling, non topical drivel is over that line. In my opinion of course.
    Woke up this morning to see that I typed do instead of don't .Sort of changes what I was trying to say doesn't it?

    Editing now.

    It' makes a world of difference, and tbh I was kinda surprised when I first read it

    @ Something Else, this thread was originally posted in the BT section, so that may have something to do with the folks from the BT section posting in it

    @pentomato at the very least, they keep this place active

    if nobody was posting (useful or otherwise), this place would be dead in a matter of days

    don't get me wrong though...i'm not encouraging bs posting...i'm just saying, it doesn't hurt as much as you think...the worst it does is increase the work load for the mods

    I'm still new to what exactly trolling actually is, but if its just having a go at someone or simply talking c**p then surely a system thats controlled correctly and justly would promote healthier debates or just conversations?
