What is with all the Troll action and why don't the mods do anything about it? Or can anyone just blast the boards with multiple 'Read my story, please read my story?!' posts and bump them every few days with 'no comments, here's a picture of my trailer'.

Also:

Aside from the Summer Loving and the upcoming Halloween story contests, are there any other LEGITIMATE contests? There was mention of a monthly contest?
 
There are other themed contests. Following Halloween is Winter Holiday. There's a sticky post at the top of the AH entitled "Authors please read" that posts the themed contest schedule for each year.

You're entered in the monthly contests and year-end contests automatically by posting stories.

The top 3 scoring stories each month with at least 10 votes are awarded the monthly prizes.

The top scoring stories in every category each month are nominated for the year-end awards.

Those are the only official contests now that the official Survivor contest has been suspended. ( The Survivor contest continues under the direction of members )

Not all forums have moderators.

Here, the General Board and some others operate without moderator intervention. Put the assclowns on ignore, then you will never see a post or thread by them.
 
Every time they run us trolls off all the nice people come outta hiding and post their boring aches and pains and unicorn sightings or beg for t-ball trophies for their shit stories. Then they beg us to return. So go fuck yourself.

Ah, JBJ, you have such a way with words. :)
 
Ah... I didn't get the troll part at first. I wasn't even thinking about the forums.

Half of the threads he's bumping used to be in other forums. They were first dumped into the General Board. The folks there who put up with virulent bigots, political spammers, and celebrity stalkers on a daily basis protested en masse that they didn't want him around.

So, they scraped him off their shoes on our front porch.

Just put him and his propaganda alt on ignore.

Just do what most of us do - put him and his alts into your ignore list. That cleans up your Authors' Hangout experience.
 
I must have the person on ig since I haven't noticed anything out of the ordinary. I probably have about 50 alts from the gb igged. I got tired of seeing their disgusting alt names and thread titles, as well as their bumping old threads to continue flame wars.

Just saw you were from the northbay, thought maybe you might like to connect seeing how I am from the north bat aswell.

Thank you for this info. :). As Liz Lemmon used to say on 30 Rock, I'm "high-fiving a million angels!"

Youre queen of the trolls. The female Pilot.

Life becomes much easier on AH when you've put three users on ignore.
 
I have heard somewhere - must have been Russian Television channel - that trolls are people who incite responses from someone in order to show up their (possible) hypocrisy.

Trolls, are... ...good?

Some... trolls. Maybe.

The term is misapplied here. A troll is a provocateur, eliciting outraged responses. By that definition, LIT's *authors*, not readers, are the trolls. Many LW stories are obviously trolling for outrage. Those responding punitively are not trolls, merely jerks.
 
The AH trolls are always stupid bitches with control issues. ^^^^^^^
 
Poor JBJ, everyone but me has him on ignore and I'm considering it.

Me neither. I think of him as a little bit of local flavour. Though not so much a plot bunny generator, rather a bunny boiler (after he's shot and shagged them first).

TEX and PILOT star in my new hit UP SHIT CREEK WITHOUT A CONDOM, AGAIN.

In it the President is assassinated by a gay illegal, flees to Mexico where they refuse to hand him over, and the boyz are recruited to go to Mexico and kidnap the killer. TEX, with his skinny crack legs, dresses as the famous PINK FLAMINGO crime-stopper, and PILOT dons his usual gay apparel....falalalala.
