Looks like a fallacy, specifically: special pleading:

Why is that justification considered valid when applied to an
anonymous poster like Bertie but not valid when applied to a poster
who uses his real name like Jay?

I never said it was or anything about anonymous posters.

Ah, okay. It was a rhetorical question anyway. Doesn't seem to have made
the point I intended.

As far as I can tell Jay has just as much right to "give a crap less
what anyone thinks of him" and just say what he feels about "Bertie"
without having to justify it.

I never said he didn't.

True enough. I thought your post was intended as a defense of Bertie, but
in retrospect it is just an observation. Mea culpa.

Bottom line:

Jay said Bertie is a troll.

I said Bertie is something else.

I hear New Zealand thinks differently. ;-)

Me, I think I should stifle my temptation to jump into these personality
debates.
