By saying that I have said here that I love to stir things up just for the fun I get out of it you are the second person who has misrepresented what I really did say. I can only suppose that you are referring to the comment I made about getting some gratification out of being insulted and called names on another message board. Again, what I meant by that was when someone does that it means that they do not actually have a response to the arguments I have made and so I get the gratification of knowing that my arguments were sound. As for the definition of troll, it fails to describe me in that my purpose is not to provoke an emotional response or to inflame others. If I happen to do so I don't shy away from it. That is the problem of the ones who feel provoked. My purpose is more of a matter that I have some very strong principles and feel extremely strongly about certain things and my entire life has involved speaking out about those matters. It really is hard to face injustice and enforced ignorance without reacting against it. table with 2 columns and 6 rows Subj: [bookshare-discuss] Please Don't Feed The Troll - smile Date: 1/22/2009 10:23:29 PM Eastern Standard Time From: cherryjam@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Reply-to: bookshare-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx To: bookshare-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent from the Internet (Details) table end Cindy, Sharon and Patti, Roger is trolling every time someone posts regarding Christianity, and has done so since he came on the list. If you're not familiar with the term "troll" or "internet troll," here's a definition from Wikipedia: "An Internet troll, or simply troll in Internet slang, is someone who posts controversial, inflammatory, irrelevant or off-topic messages in an online community, such as an online discussion forum or chat room, with the intention of provoking other users into an emotional response or to generally disrupt normal on-topic discussion" The best way to handle trolling (again I'll quote from Wikipedia, as they put it well) is simple: "Do not feed the troll." You'll find that abbreviated as "D-N-F-T" or "D-F-T-T" in Internet slang. Put simply: you'll drive yourself crazy by getting sucked into a discussion with someone who is trolling. Consider just ignoring a troll's posts when he or she is trolling. Provoking a response is what a troll enjoys. Roger himself has posted here that he loves to stir things up just for the fun he gets out of it. grin. Judy s.
