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.
I need no defense. My actions don't require it.
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.
Why? I think they're great.
