"Internet Trolls..."

Say they are leaving a forum then return?
Nonsense.

Or frequently take highly publicised forum "sabbaticals" and spend the entire time lurking and sending annoying PMs to those posters who's posts I disagreed with.

Perhaps, if i wrote a poem about cardigans, everything would be okay in the world...

FMF was implying you are a snob... but coming from him you can probably take that as a compliment.

Not at all. It was a reference back to something said in an exchange between Ghost of a Duke and me. "Cardigans and poetry" does not evoke snobbery at all; it is about calmness and gentility. You are trying a little to hard to score a point, I think. Go back and see how the cardigans motif has arisen.

Oh yes of course, my mistake. I should have realized this because you literally wreak of calmness and gentiliy... Perhaps you could stick with that cardigans and poetry motif? 😉 😉 😉 😉 😉 😉 😉 😉 😉 😉 😉 😉 😉 😉 😉 😉 😉 😉 😉 😉 😉 😉 😉 😉 😉 😉 😉 😉 😉 😉 😉

The "calmness and gentility" is what Ghost of a Duke's "cardigans and poetry" represents. The first punch you swung didn't connect. And this follow up is even more off target. Just go back and read the thread.

You should go back and read the thread and stop flailing. 😉

Hey sup Droogster I thought I'd find you here by FMF's side all curled up smug and tight.

That would depend on my interest in Gorgonzola cheese throwing. One thing is for sure, if I had no interest in Gorgonzola throwing and saw two people throwing Gorgonzola each other in a manner clearly indicating that they were both happy doing so, I wouldn't get in between them and question their motives.

Gorgonzola cheese throwing is a messy business and innocent bystanders invariably get it all over their cardigans. It also sets the norm that cheese throwing is the new hoola hoop and insipidly infects the entire cracker. But sure, we all like to throw a little cheese now and again. The issue at hand is knowing when you are throwing too much.

The law of conservation of energy and a planned use of resources should definitely come into play as one would not want to waste one's cheese distribution on the cheese-less or the uncheeseworthy. Of course it has been argued that in cheese-throwing season there are no "innocent bystanders"...just rind. Another commentator once observed that all was fair in love-and-cheese and that a forum's strength lay in its ability to make cheese. 🙂

4. The Never-Give-Up, Never-Surrender Troll: "This troll is ALWAYS right and will battle to the death to prove it. There’s no point in trying to fight her. If she can’t back something up with reality, she’ll make something up, just to show you how wrong you are."

5. The Retroactive Stalker: "The Retroactive Stalker will go back in time to find every cragislist post you ever made until he finds something embarrassing you said, even if you posted it three years ago. After that, whenever you post anything new, the Retroactive Stalker will link to the old post(s) in an effort to discredit you." http://www.smosh.com/smosh-pit/articles/18-types-of-internet-troll
