There doesn't appear to be any real trolling on I^2 these days.

Saying stupid shit <> trolling. Necrobumping <> trolling. Ad hominem attacks <> trolling. Claiming false facts <> trolling.

I don't think anyone is calling these things trolling


But, they can all contribute to it. Tools.

Saying stupid shit and necrobumping, mostly.

Necrobumping the worst kind of bumping to go through, because one isn't so sure why it happens to begin with.

My point was that most of what goes on at I^2 since I've been here isn't trolling.

Was there the suggestion that there was?
I2 today is not i2 of yesteryear. It is a knitting circle. Those that participate be they nice or asshats know their place and the price to be there. Odeon is the overlord

.Benevolent if you toe the line.

Think it is I2 of old? Even Odeon is not so delusional as to think otherwise. He may on occasionally pretend otherwise but his base is that knitting circle.

Censoring/banning/restricting/moderating myself, Calanadale & Scrapheap were all not his finest moments.

No one ever classifies my contributions as trolling.  >:(

This thread is a criticism of the quality of trolling at I^2. I am making a comment that is relevant to the thread.

A bit like if I said "I ate Easter eggs" in a thread titled "what have you eaten today?". I shouldn't need to justify why I am posting about what I ate today in a thread about what I ate today.

The low quality trolling was referring to a group on here trolling a member on WP, who was lower functioning, as far as I can make out.

All the good trolls got banned.  :zoinks:

Imnotaparakeet was a sanctimonious, bigoted religious nutter who was begging to be trolled.

I'm not sure he was lower functioning, he seemed to be about average for WP.

However, that's besides the point. If you express the viewpoints he did, expect flames.   :flames:
