Trolls…

Guys, we all know who they are. Please stop responding to those posts. That’s the only way. Not even things like “you’re frustrating” or bugger off etc. ANY response feeds them.

If we unanimously stop responding to their posts including their responses in other serious posts, we can fish out those duplicates accounts as well (possibly he may respond to his own posts from other accounts for a while to keep threads alive)

Dude no and you are going crazy. I only have one account. If you notice the mods has disable account creation. They are real mongers that are responding to me. If you notice why I have such as large fan base that will follow everywhere I go it's because they taken note I am a real techie in real life. It's just jealousy because I took LKS Mia on a date and show off about it.

You are spreading false information.

To quote another popular online forum: Hide troll threads , ignore troll posts , don't respond to trolls.

agree

Like I mentioned, he’s been doing this for literally many years. Only time I saw him stop was when he was banned. He was kicked out of another site recently a couple times. Mods don’t put up with crap. Whenever he went off topic, he was warned. Kicked out a couple of days later. He then reappeared here unfortunately with a new alias.

I don’t understand the idiots who respond with paragraphs giving advice and sympathy to the troll. How stupid are these people? Unless they are the same trolls burner accounts and he’s talking to himself.

Best advise I was given and finally followed was put him on " ignore " Makes this site more tolerable.

Watch the timestamp on replies, and if it's within 5-7 minutes, it's probably the same dude. Lots of new threads with "conversations" with quick turnarounds like that right now.

Yeah, its a big bummer, as I'm getting less and less interested in this forum due to trolls. Block, move on, and use your judgement.

Thus my appeal to the sensible folk !

You bet

Have you guys heard of Brandolini's law? It basically states: "The amount of energy needed to refute bullshit, is an order of magnitude bigger than that needed to produce it."

Trolls are only after one thing...a reaction/attention. Starve the trolls by not even acknowledging them and their BS, and cut off the source of what fuels them. Easier said than done, of course, but our site has so much great content to focus your attention and time on, and just ignore all the other noise.

Don’t hate the player; hate the game. Software frankly has become ubiquitous. Selling software to a customer is a near zero production cost as opposed to a physical product. It scales perfectly.

The people who can add value to this need are handsomely rewarded. Providers are attracted to a financially well off individual. I enjoy seeing a k-girl semi-frequently and talking about them.

You have had 3 other handles that have been previously banned, and have been warned a number of times by me personally. If I were you, I'd cut out the bullshit, stop what most members would call trolling behavior, stay on-topic in threads, and be a model citizen, if you want to remain a member here.

In case it flew over your head, or chose to bury your head into the sand, the OP and other members who have commented in this thread are referring to YOU.

Him being banned 3 times for trolling should have had him removed permanently. He adds nothing here but lies and non sense.

That's the thing...our site is purely fictional and just one big fantasy...the ultimate and only goal is to be entertained.

Also, after TJ came back, we reinstated many, many banned accounts...some were deserved bans, and many more were unwarranted...so, basically, it was almost like starting over. Now, if a member continues their antics of trolling, yes, we will take action. But like we've said many times, that's the last resort, because guys should have a chance to redeem themselves, and learn from their mistakes. If a member can't do that after repeated warnings, only then, will we consider a ban. In other words, it's not something we take lightly.

But that decision will be ours, and it won't happen just because you think that should be the case. We have our reasons for doing what we do, regardless of whether you think it makes sense or not.

So what if a member's posts are full of BS? Just ignore it or the member...but I bet you haven't put that member on ignore. Why? Because you want to keep tabs on him, right? Or see what other nonsense he writes? If the member truly bothered you to no avail, just use the ignore button. Simple as that.

Can you ban randonesss for like a few weeks or month? I think he is hurting the site driving mongers away. He is now in most threads doing seemingly legitimate dialog which he knows is incorrect. See
https://www.ampreviews.net/index.php?threads/std-testing.191256/#post-1295255

I had been fooled that randonesss was autistic, until I saw mknegatives screenshots of PMs he had with him.

Didn't you read his response? They don't care. Hence the "only goal is to entertain".

Don't you find trolls, racism, lies and misinformation entertaining? Get with the program! lol

So, you want us to ban someone that's having legitimate dialogue, and NOT trolling??

Trust us when we say that some members who have a history of bad behavior are on watch, and if they continue their ways after multiple warnings and chances, they won't be welcomed on our site.

If you see any bad behavior or rule-breaking posts, make sure you report the post. But have a legitimate reason for doing so..."he's full of shit" is not valid one.

And THAT'S what you decided to take away from my post? That we allow trolling, racism, lies, and misinformation?

The first two of trolling and racism are absolutely not tolerated. Those result in immediate action on our part.

Lies? That's sort of a gray area, as it's hard to prove certain things, but if it's an fantastical embellishment, so be it. Are we going to fact-check every post of the entire board? A member claims to have a foot long dong, and is a superior lover in all manners...should we pull out a ruler and interview his previous providers?

Misinformation - this is a problem that's very prevalent not just on our site, but throughout our country. I see two approaches to combating what YOU would consider misinformation (emphasis on the YOU because everyone's definition of misinformation is different)...a rebuttal with actual facts (or what someone perceives to be facts), or just ignore the member who's spewing the misinformation.

So @SJ_Jav, let me ask you a question then...do you have the member in question on ignore? If I had to venture a guess, I'm pretty sure the answer is no. Then the follow up question is...why not? Because you want to see his posts and what he has to say, even if it's highly annoying to you. Kind of like rubbernecking a car accident on the freeway...you're not gonna drive by and NOT look, right?

It's your choice to look, just like it's your choice to be a member on the site. It's also your choice to ignore any member that you don't want to see. And if you see any instances of racism or trolling behavior, report it, so we get alerted and make a judgement call on how to deal with it. There's so much great content on our site that I'm sure you can find some that's more to your liking.
