This is a Troll [meta-thread]

[incognito]

TYPES A RESPONSE TO THE "COUNTER-TROLLS" IN ALL CAPS WITH A CONDECENDING TONE, FILLED WITH TYPOS, AND LOGIC ERRORS. USES FLAWED EXAMPLE TO PAT SELF ON BACK - EXPLAINING THAT EVEN SOMEONE WHO IS UNDER 18 CAN REPSOND TO THE ROOT ISSUE OF THE ORIGINAL THREAD IN AN INTELLIGENT WAY. POKES FUN AT SOMEONES AVATAR IN CLOSING

also: posting a funny related third person humor joke:

A person belonging to an ethnic group whose members are commonly considered to have certain stereotypical mannerisms met another person belonging to a different ethnic group with a different set of imputed stereotypical mannerisms.

The first person acted in a manner consistent with the stereotypes associated with his ethnic group, and proceeded to make a remark which might be considered to establish conclusively his membership in that group, whereupon his companion proceeded to make a remark with a double meaning, the first meaning of which could be interpreted to indicate his agreement with his companion, but the other meaning of which serves to corroborate his membership in his particular ethnic group.

The first person took offense at his remark, and reacted in a stereotypical way!

Bagpuss finds that joke offensive even though he is not a member of either stereotypical group mentioned in it, and in fact has heard that joke before told by a member of said group, who found it very funny.

*QUOTES HAL'S POST RE: LOOKING UP 'LUMINARY'*

Posts dejected and pithy comment about also being excluded from Dextra's short list, despite giving recent and valuable information to her bethrothed regarding their "bee problem"...

Sulks off to lurk, hoping beyond hope for a forthcoming reprival, editing, and re-posting of said short list from Dextra, with a trailing frown...

 

[Mathew_Freeman]

Without reading the rest of the thread, Tallarn replies to the original post, making the same points as at least three other posters, in a less coherent way.

He then makes some vague comment about how certain people must have already posted, but that he can't be bothered to read their replies since he can already guess what they've said and doesn't agree with it.

He then subscribes to the thread, ready for future arguments, and forgets to leave his .sig out, whilst also "casually" mentioning that he has a Kings Of Chaos Army that needs new members, and that since this thread is so popular he could do with some people clicking on his link...

I break out of Lurking mode and post a "me too" message here actually meant for another thread entirely and wonder why once again when I post to a thread no one ever responds to my responce.

{Insert blanket statment of superiority here}
{Insert insulting remarks that can be directed at any one of the above flamers here}
{Close with condescending remarks that are probably directed at the moderators here}

 

[I'm A Banana]

Pretends to be superior to you all, because you fell for a troll.

Posts a Monty Python quote about cabbage.

 

[Sniktch]

Sniktch stops in after several friends tell him about the thread. He'd been ignoring it before but now that he's here he sees things have gotten out of hand.

He wonders how such an obvious troll and flamewar could have been allowed to continue for so long without a moderator shutting it down.

He asks everybody to calm down and discuss it politely, never mentioning his own opinion. He enters yet another 'can't we all just get along' post on the thread.

Then he heads back to discuss the thread with his friends on other threads and boards where he knows that everyone will agree with his position, laughing all the way and feeling quite smug.

I will read the first post as it just is posted and not understand what it is for, I will cotinue doing other things and posting on hivemind and ignore the thread. Then I will be pointed to this thread hy Hellhound and start reading all of it, only getting the joke after three posts. I will then explain the view I have and that has been expressed 1000 times allready. I will leave my .sig in on purpose so people think I am annoying and make another meta thread about annoying .sigs
