Trolls, keyboard warriors... ignore, block or digilantism?

[Disgustipated]

Keep spinning your own narrative. It honestly doesn't matter to me. Lesson learned when dealing with you. Mistake won't be repeated.

And apparently I'll get what is coming to me....in just a couple weeks.

Coming to you, in you, on you. Good thing we have a team of cucks to clean up.

Ya dig?

I wonder if vat remembers when we used to exchange pm's and he told me about the craigslist hookers he gets while away on business trips?

I kinda am.

I did say blackmail was a bit harsh. Intimidate/shame/troll all more appropriate. And you know EXACTLY what is being discussed and what you posted. He already posted it in this very thread. I'm not going to be bullied into posting the photo to prove the point. I made a horrific lapse in judgment. You attempted to use that to your advantage and it backfired because you didn't expect me to be honest with him about it.

I remember that pic....FUCKIN HaWt!!!!

I love these Lit Romances, I really do.

The current state of the GB was set in place when Hanns Schmidt harassed sexy_girl to the point where she could no longer post, and the administrators decided his free speech rights overrode her right to be here at all.

That is interesting backstory. I also agree that there should be a line drawn at harassment, but it might also come down to the legality of how much Laurel and Manu are able to police. She could ban an IP address, but determined folks could get around that pretty easily. It is also, ultimately, a judgement call (though in some cases it's clearly black and white). Intervening at all could open them up to culpability for a failure to do more. Talking out of my ass, really. Make no mistake - if I had the keys, a bunch of these fuckers would be nuclear banned 4 lyfe, but I trust that it's complicated and I trust Laurel.

Question: has there ever been a female poster who's crossed the boundary and threatened someone's real work or family life? Granted, it's likely a bunch of things have happened behind the scenes that none of us will ever know about, but I'm just seeing a pattern of angry, jilted men making lit a hostile place for women.

I was just thinking the other day that it's kind of a bummer that I can't really post pictures anymore. I've just crossed too many of the crazies. How sad is that?? The best part of this place has always been the occasional flash of titty, and shitty men are ruining it for all of us.

Obligatory #notallmen - some of you here are the best in the world. But lit seems to be a cozy place for misogynists.

The GB is an equal opportunity forum.

Whiners, regardless of their alleged gender, should fuck off.

Honest question:

Why do your posts always seem to come down to "men are bad"? Is there some back story I'm missing?

 

[Disgustipated]

This is all because of Phelia's spot-on lists. Fucking instigator!

No back story, you're just not very observant.

Yes, everyone should shut up and listen to your fascinating fixations with people who are happier than you are.

Can definitely help! You are an uninteresting old man of average or below average intelligence who has nothing better to do than attempt to trap me into engaging with you by making insipid and absurd generalizations. Does that clear it up?

Uhuh. But enough about me; why do your posts always seem to come down to "I hate men"?

I truly want to know because I'm sure there is a good person in there someplace. If we can just get past the genetic carpet bombing we could actually, maybe, discuss things.

BobsDownSouth is going to be very disappointed that the one and only attribute contributing to his self-styled "Alpha as FUCK" persona is a disqualifier.

Some of us are reasonably tall. But tall or short behind a monitor doesn't matter. The trolls and warrors of those keyboards will still get to us.
By commenting back we are only feeding them. But at least we keep them in mom's basement out of the real world.

I'm grandfathered in under Phelia's old rules, shortbread.

I realize "No Tall Men" probably made your heart skip a beat, as it's not often women state a preference for diminutive 5' 8" twinks such as you.

Edited to add: BTW, if you still have a hankering for a well-paid trannie job, one of the local strip clubs here in Houston is hiring!

As usual, your post has the ring of articulation, without the substance.

Instead of trying to be clever (not your strong suit) you should stick to the manhating.

The housefraus here all eat that shit up...until their husbands catch them here...you go grrl!

So articulation is another word Little Lance doesn't understand.

You suffer from lukitis sandboxitis...sounds like an insult, but when parsed comes up as a fail.

How's that visa coming along?

How come the part time shop clerk butters got there first?

I personally don't believe that would be easy..
I understand that alts use proxy IP's, and people's definition of or tolerance of various trolls vary. We'd risk having people ask Laurel to ban those that they dislike, or to put an end to free speech.

I think that the best way would be to police ourselves, like you guys did with these threads and statements.
And, most of all, Not to encourage the alts or trolling comments.

 

[hsnh]

To most of your guys (who post in the Blurt thread)'s and even my credit, we don't encourge harassment (aka consistent, over a period of time // to be differentiated from occ. bad comments or behaviors, since some people confuse the two).
Even if we otherwise like or engage with the person who does it or we dislike the target.

But there still are a handful of posters who tend to encourage the alts or trolling, either by quoting and giggling with them or stating that the target totally deserves to be trolled.
