Cowslinger VS Meta-Troll

Well that makes more sense as a question. Ordinarily I would say no. For example even if Dom Elliot Roger had been here long enough to have developed a fan base, I still think most of the replies there would be much the same with perhaps some supporters chiming in.

Had CS been an active participant in the thread, with his fans chiming in, 'right on, you tell 'im, bro!" I would assume most of that was spontaneous.

This was a unique situation in that there was some sort of a huddle. "I'm just putting this here until (joy?) gets here!!" As if the arrival of (joy? -might have that wrong) was some portent that the group was anticipating.

Again, no huddle. On the importance list, it just wasn't that high. He has friends on the PG, and most decent people will stand up when someone is attacking their friend. No prompting or strategic planning needed.

Seriously, did you not read anything I just said?

I'm not buying that you have legitimate questions about group mentality or that you're confused about who posted what or where. I suspect that this thread occupies the very front and center of your tiny brain and will continue to do so for as long as you can keep it going. You really are pathetic.

The "ragtag group of rebels" is a standard bbs troll technique. The I am david vs Goliath meme to elicit sympathy from the board because every one looks around and says, "Hey, I am not a part of this cabal of which he speaks!" and looks to join the "rebels" in reality the "rebels" and "rebel allies" is the larger organized group.

In this troll, I was careful to try and not make it a referendum, nor to even suggest that I had any support whatsoever in doing this. It is only in this post troll analysis and contrasting with the equally weird Dom Roger Elliot style that I bring up the odd collusion here.

I would absolutely not even have alluded to it if this was ongoing because it would have looked transparently as an appeal to me against the masses and that was never what this was about.

I realize that standard BBS to modern forum dogma on trolls is that ignoring them is the only way to deal with them. That same advice is given in schools about bullying. It sometimes is a good idea. Always a good idea in the initial stages of bullying to simply not show dismay, not show they have gotten a rise.

When that fails, continuing to ignore the bullying, especially when it becomes a small group, and those dynamics take over tends to embolden them as the group feels they have a compliant victim. There are things that can be done as I have shown here.

Do I come off as a whiny bitch in the process? Sure. Is it as ineffective as everyone claims in such direct confrontation? No.

I now have Rob unilaterally announcing he is ignoring me for a month, Cowslinger announcing he is ignoring me and at least now acting like he intends to do that and advising the latest upstart applying for the bash queer-bait club. Dom Roger folded in three posts.

Thank you for the explanation.

You seem awfully nasty for a Playgrounder.

Don't go back there, stay here.

Daddy-O...

Made me LOL.

I think your response was sufficient but I cannot help but point out that 22 posts, at least 1/2 dozen before I even noticed her yammering away at me seems a little invested.

Whatever. They weren't all to you. And I don't buy for a hot second that you didn't notice them. I'm willing to bet cash money that you watched the thread like a hawk.

Wait.

Is this Cowslinger?

Fuck off. There's no way Cowslinger looks this good naked.
 
This is query's circus.... I nothing to do with it, and this will be my only post on it too. If some of you had bothered to notice, I hadn't said a word on it since I'd told him I wouldn't.

Subdued needs to spend more time trying to prove "she's"not a man, the shriveled sacs were welcome additions especially considering they have me on ignore like little bitches.

They started the bullshit with me, I didn't come here to be that way.. so fuck em, they deserve nothing less in return. I've posted opinions lots of times, but with query, miles, bunny, jen, Ish, forestdump et al, what's the point?


Query...you're a fucking dumbass. Plain and simple. It's obvious I don't care what your opinion is, that's why I rip you. More than once I offered to leave you alone if you'd just ignore me, but that was too difficult for a dickhead like yourself. You decided to post this dumbshit thread and even ran the post count up on my butt thread to get it to 5000 so you could start your own. Like I actually cared. Playing the victim and innocent act is pathetic.

You've never angered me, I don't think anything of you. So why would you bother me? I just enjoyed poking at your bulbous vacuous head. I also told you what I'd expect from a meeting, and that was to watch you be nice and respectful to me to my face. But you and that pussy miles turned it into more.

You're a passive aggressive lunatic. Be thankful for your anonymity.


Btw... I act different on the PG because there aren't any trolls like you, miles, vette etc...

Why? What bearing does my gender have on the thread? This must be one of the examples of your superior logic and intelligence being lost upon the idiots here.

hmm you got me dead to rights here Aphroditiac. i was stuinned and laughing so hard. i just blurted out . .nothingness.

soo , i was trying to say: Query, if i was you, and i'm glad i'm not.
seeing how you have stired up a hornets nest. which may have been a much better thing. than that of Joy, Scent, Snow, Wear, Bie and a few other . fine persons each and every one of them. as for you, there are not enough flowers or chocolates in the whole USA, to make it right with them. and not only them . . ..but Slinger too:eek:. soo if you know like i know, and it shows you don't.
Query, it'd be best if you just let it all be, and walk away.

yup that how i mean it. hahahhahha but i was laughing too hard. and the other came out. thank you, for the sharp stick used to point that out to me . . . . . :rose:

:confused:


At the risk of encouraging your lunacy further, I'll answer, though I can only speak for me.

No one sent me to the thread. No one asked me to post there or even read it. Those who mentioned me did so because they know Slinger is my friend and that I am the kind of person who strands behind my friends with as large a presence as possible. They knew when I saw it, that I would have something to say about it.

I received no 'atta girl' but I did get a 'thank you' from my friend for saying nice things about him. There were no emails to him or apprisals of the thread content, at least from me.

Regardless of your opinion of him, the fact is that he is just not that into you. He did not follow the thread as breathlessly as you think. We actually had a long conversation about another subject entirely while the thread was unfolding, and he was not concerned about the thread enough to even mentioni it.

I hope that pokes a tiny deflating hole into QB's giant balloon head. Your opinion of your importance is greatly exaggerated when you're talking about people with actual lives away from their computer.

The rules of the Forum state that threads must be started in the appropriate board. The rule is pretty clear. And this is not a PG thread. Nor are Query's comments on PG threads that prompted Slinger to tell him to take that shit back to the GB in the first place, and why he doesn't post the same way there as on the GB. It's common sense...though I like to know who people really are, so it's good to know that you're too lazy to read the things you throw your opinion at, or you're too stupid to comprehend it.

Wow, you're this mad because someone held a mirror up to your friend?

If you don't like listening to people's opinions about your friends then stick your fingers and your ears and go 'na na na na' because calling me names doesn't stop me from posting my opinions.
 
Whatever. They weren't all to you. And I don't buy for a hot second that you didn't notice them. I'm willing to bet cash money that you watched the thread like a hawk.

It's a bet you would lose. I was in midst of a completely different tempest in a tea-kettle at the time.

Just because you, for whatever your reasons were, "watched it like a hawk" doesn't mean I needed to.

Unless Cowslinger was on the board none of what was going on there mattered. When he was on the board, I simply looked at where he was posting so I could transfer them over there.

Unless there was something else madam, I think this thread can be safely retired.

I'm not mad. I didn't say I was, and my responses were pretty calm and thought out.

I called you 'lazy' OR 'stupid' - pick one, they both seem to fit - because you didn't bother reading the posts you were opining on. Maybe you're comfortable with offering input without understanding the issue, I dunno. You also seemed particularly outraged that Slinger would get to have this thread moved to the GB and that was some kind of special treatment. It is not...the thread broke the rules of the forum and was moved to a more appropriate place on the board.

I also don't appreciate my posts referred to as 'drivel'. So as far as I'm concerned, you can eat me.

Do I need to type that more slowly for you?

Sorry, didn't see this. I can see how you hate not to have your "large of a presence as possible" ignored.

I take you at your word. If all this craziness was simply an expression of your own displaying your ardor for Cowslinger, well god bless you both. This was an academic discussion about how it was odd that others were speaking for him. That is it. Any speculation on how that occurred on my part is pure speculation.

Given that Cowslinger has once again pledged to ignore me, I am not sure why you and I are once again having a discussion.

I do find it curious that you and Cowslinger barely think of me, discuss me not at all, yet you use the same little insults. As far as my "big, bulbous head" I can send you my hat size if you were doing some early Christmas shopping. I don't recall off the top of my head but somewhere in the neighborhood of a 7

Again, you appear to be too stupid to comprehend.

No, not mad at all, sister bro.

I am having trouble keeping up with your large a presence as possible. Any chance you can go for medium presence?

Dustin Hoffman in Rainman said:
Are you on any prescription medications?

See, here's the thing. Cowslingers sense of self-worth is very tied up in his board image and that image being seen as very masculine. If you keep playing the poor, picked on maiden, he is just going to start up again and no one needs that.

Isn't there something fun you could be doing?

I wasn't watching it...but are you ACTUALLY going to be able to leave it alone?

I don't mind telling you that I'll be watching it now...and your other posts. Because if you refer to it again, after you've already said you're retiring the issue, I'm going to be on you like white on rice. It's my new favorite hobby. We'll see if you can put your money where your big ol' mouth is. I'm putting ten bucks down right now on NOT.

And I won't have to wait long to win...I'll be pleasantly surprised if you can curb your crazy long enough to not respond to me lol

Have a great day, loser!

I call bullshit.

I don't share his insults...at no point did I refer to your 'big bulbous head'.

Can you even read? Maybe that's the problem.

Wit long? My wit is indeed long. All the ladies tell me so.

I am not "retiring the issue" I said that Cowslinger is now ignoring me, which was always the point. Any time I choose to discuss this issue or my feelings on Cowslingers behavior I will do so.

What does "all over me like white on rice" look like? You posting in my general direction?

Your new favorite hobby?

Huh.

You have a great day too.

Edit:

You are persistent, aren't you? I think it would be cow-slung shit, not bullshit.

Why would I lie about when I notice the next of your dizzying array of posts? I have attempted to respond to each and every one of them, whether addressed directly to me or not, since any post not responded to generates two more demanding to know why the items raised were not addressed.

Are you done now? My oatmeal is getting cold.

People usually resort to name calling when they get mad or are you one of those people who just don't understand basic etiquette.

I've raised similar outrage to threads that have been moved from other boards to the GB or even from the Personals to the Playground. I don't get how that makes me an asshole.

I hardly think that Cowslinger is important or relevant enough to "get to have this thread moved". What most likely happened is that a bunch of posters reported it and the mod grew tired of the whining and gave in.

Please link to the post where I called your posts drivel.

Instead of typing slower try using logic.

See? Too dumb to even understand it when I DID use logic. Do you need to review the guidelines?

I say what I think. I'm far from mad, and my manners are just fine, thanks. You haven't used basic etiquette, so why should I extend that courtesy?
 
You sure sound "far from mad" in either sense of the word.

SMH... yeah I'll get that check right in the mail.

That is not how customarily a wager works... For example, If I say, "I bet you $100 you cannot hold your breath for the next 10 minutes" you do not owe me $100 if you decide to both continue breathing and not to accept my proffer.

I am beginning to see that you and cowslinger are a very good fit. Are you registered anywhere?
 
Woo-hoo! Ten bucks.

Welcome to the Playground!

This forum is for posting fun topics/discussion - pretty much anything you want to talk about. As usual, underage/bestiality/etc. is not allowed.

We encourage animated discussion but flaming/hijacking of threads and generally being rude and argumentative is not allowed. Threads that don't follow these guidelines will be removed and posts will be edited! Don't say you weren't warned

Now go back and just skim the first page to see which posters were being argumentative and hijacking a thread.

You just had to ignore it but you couldn't because your friend needed defending really really bad.

Yeah, keep calling me names it makes every.thing.you.type.right. I can see why you and cowslinger are such friends.

Ordinarilly I don't make that assumption. Frequently I will have a personality conflict (I know shocking, right) with someone, and am good friends with their friends. Usually though it is because the thing that rubs me wrong is of minor concern to me, and their positive traits are just not in areas that I happen to be privy to.

Several interesting people took the time to PM me to express in a balanced way the fact that they do not approve of some statements, but have a fondness for cowslinger. Not all friends of my "foe" are my enemy.. People are too multifaceted for that.

In this case though you may have a point. Carrots and peas as Forrest said of He and Jenny.

You realize, though that the common intersection of these little tiffs of mine lately is me, right? I obviously antagonize a certain type of individual. I am not sure what she thinks I might reasonably do? Suddenly decide that all of Cowslingers relentless trolling was all in good fun?

It is starting to feel like wack-a-mole. Each more persistent than the last. What is the payoff for them?

Ha! I didn't see this before I posted.

It just struck me that this particular poster has arrived to defend Cowslinger's honour in the past as well. LC pointed out how the guy was a misogynist and the next thing we know here she arrives to her defend her knight's honour. I think she probably stalks him around the boards or he mails her and asks her to help him out.

It's sweet really.

Did I ever say I was betting YOU?

This is not mad. I'm an Irish redhead...when I get mad, you'll know it. No need to wonder.

Yeah, keep calling me names it makes every.thing.you.type.right. I can see why you and cowslinger are such friends.

Why? I've ready read the whole thread..something you didn't bother with before you decided to chime in.

I will always defend my friends...Cowslinger or anyone else. Did he need it? No. He didn't ask me to, and he didn't need to ask me. He could not have cared less if I posted or not.

What amuses me most, asshole, is that you assume you know anything about me or him outside this forum. Are you really so stupid as to think that either of us are showing you every facet of our character here? Nobody does, except the stupidest, most arrogant ones who think lit is as important as real life and take everyone else at face value.

Why are we such friends? On my part, because he's smart, caring, kind, and generous. It's no insult to me to be compared to him.

And again, you, just like query, ignore the part of the post you can't answer to. The thread was moved because it broke the rules. Review them again, and then I'd love to hear your argument for why it should have stayed in the PG. If this is the crux of your complaint, then address it. Otherwise, fuck off.
 
This really fucks up that idea that the Playground is where all the nice people hang out.

No stalking necessary. I can read just as well as anyone else. Except, maybe, you two, who seem to stumble over single-syllable words.

If you go back to look, you'll see he is not the only person I have defended. But I can see why you wouldn't....that would burst your bubble.

I don't care what you do. You're such a lunatic that it's been fun to fuck with you. And you respond exactly as I expect each and every time.

Eventually I'll bore with you though, no worries. My brain cells refuse to participate in such toddleresque idiocy for too long.
