Does it annoy you when you post something "inflammatory"

But the intended "target" doesn't bother to reply?

No, sillies...I am not trying to inflame someone...but I have noticed threads or posts that are directed at people (yes, where there are names posted) and those people never bother to respond but others do.

Do you continue to post things in the hopes that your "target" will answer...or do you give up and go look for new game?

The only reason that I am seeing this now is that I don't get on here quite as much and when I do, I have a habit of reading more than posting. It is sort of wild what one comes across...anyways the above question occurred to me...hence, the thread.
 
No, but overuse of quotations does. J/K!!!

Seriously, depends on who's doing which to whom. With the trolls, it just gets boring after a while to respond to them. Eventually you just give up beating your head against a brick wall.

I pretty much don't care if the trolls respond, either. They never have anything particularly interesting to say.

The rest of the time it's either:

a) someone's gone offline and doesn't wanna bump it back up later.

b) they're too stupid to think of a retort, so they pretend they're "above" answering.

c) there really is no point in answering.
 
Sorry? That went right over my head. :D

*Hanging head* I am guilty of aiming
a jibe or 11 at trolls.

If the intended target doesn't reply? :p
They are usually ignoring you or read
but don't bother to respond.

It is fun when they do jump up and
down though. Highly entertaining. :)
 
I don't post infalmmatory posts as a general rule.


It does annoy the hell out of me when i think i'm being ignored, though.
 
I don't care if I get a reply from Frimost or not. He's a retarded shit yodeling cock-cheese eating misogynist virgin escaping reality through aggression against anything with a vagina.
 
When I post some thing like that I aim it at so many different people it doesn't matter. I do like whatching people moan and groan about people they supposedly have on ignore though. It's amusing.

I know Mia meant different threads in general and just not mine.

Just kidding...i am happy that you did realize my intent tho. :)
 
Cheyenne encounters this phenominon constantly, as does Muffy....thread after thread where the bait is set, and it sinks to the bottom.

Lavvy used to be like that as well before Daddy took her computer away and made her drop out of school to get a job.

More wonderful examples of Lance's "honesty." LOL

Mia jumps quite well. Too bad Lance stands back to let her do it rather than help his friend. Or maybe he likes to see her jump, too?

i think they constantly are pressing f5 waiting for the person to reply and when they finally have to give up and goto bed they fall asleep with tears on the pilllow


or maybe not :) but i do think sometimes the best way to answer an inflammatory thread is to not reply at all


edited for a mistake :)

How then would you characterize Cheyenne & Glam's grabbing at the bait (above) ?

Trolling is a time-honoured Internet tradition...those who eat the worm dangling at their lips on the other hand, are boobs.

Yes?

I wasn't looking for a blood oath...just your opinion.

Trolling, after all, is short for "trolling for newbies", wherein you hang something silly out for people to grab onto so you can laugh at them....it doesn't have to be mean or nasty, something apparently lost I think in the more narrow use of the word "troll" here.

Mia was, I think, trolling for Chey...and I think that's her now, wiggling on the bottom of the boat.

Do you want to smack her in the head with an oar...or should we release her?
