: Bertie the Bunyip wrote: Once I hace a trollee shrieking, I can generally expose ever more of his idiocy or hypocrisy simply by pushing all the right buttons. Mxsmanic was your target, right? Originally. Thanks to your magnanimous (or self- centered) gesture everyone but the target is shrieking. Nope, only a handful are shrieking. All buttons, right and wrong, appear to have been pushed. I never hit a wrong button. I use a checklist. Good work - I think your work here is done! :-) Nope, everyone is a potential target, Bertie |

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. Bertie Bertie |

Conflict like this is a fact of life. Imagining you can stop it is a waste of that life.. Bertie |

Carry on. Bertie |

I can tell you from experience that a good troll is never deterred by that. Jay hasn't actually killfiled me and I know it, for one thing, and even if he left usenet forever I could pull his chain just by living longer than him at this stage. He's mine forever now, so he might as wel stay and get his ass kicked in the open than in his limited imagination. Say it is not so Bertie, is there no hope of redemption from the hell you espouse? Is there no crutch among thine armaments for the crippled? Cheers |

Thing is, the concept of a troll is widely misunderstood. I believe I explained it well earlier in this thread. Without a trollee though , there are no trolls. You have to have someone as idiotic as Jay as a target or there is no point. This does not mean that ignoring me works. That tactic is just one more step along the way.

Where does it end? Will you re-make the world in your image? Do you just keep building windmills? Frankly, I don't give a damn, but you leave a lot of muck to wade through and I miss folks like MontBlack. You are getting to be kinda like a boil, not very important, but a pain in the ass. Al G |

Why, you volunteering? Step right up. First lesson, it's a bit like hypnosis. There are no unwilling victims. Where does it end? Will you re-make the world in your image? With any luck. Do you just keep building windmills? Windmills? nope. Wrong model. Frankly, I don't give a damn, Obviously. but you leave a lot of muck to wade through and I miss folks like MontBlack. Hey, I do seem o remember recommending a killfile. You are getting to be kinda like a boil, not very important, but a pain in the ass. Now that's disappointing, I was aiming for lypoma Bertie |
