It's worth considering that meth is bad and may distort your perception of reasonable people saying reasonable things.

I've never done that, because then you'd end up with some sort of disjointed conversation and you wouldn't know what the hell anyone was talking about. Nobody has been trolling, there have just been a large number of very strange posts which of course are going to attract some surprise and ridicule.

It lets you click through to view posts on an individual basis. I find it very useful as a kind of reminder to myself not to bother engaging, like a kind of digital “counting to ten”.

If you walked into a new pub and told an interesting or amusing personal story and everyone shouted “you are new here! You’re lying! You are making that up! You troll!” thrn you would probably leave too.

Look at the active topics here. Coronavirus news, Harry and a Meghan news, Thailand news links, car accidents, Burma news, etc...

When new posters join and post about overstaying or being in hotel quarantine or getting fake bills the townspeople all shout troll and it just pollutes the discussion. I’m capable of deciding on my own if someone is pulling my leg I don’t need to read a bunch of accusations of trolling by posters trying to shut down the conversation.

Fdsfsdsfdsf or whatever his name ... is admitted to meth use a long time ago and posted about overstay and problems with police which is what I would expect a meth head to post about. He may be a paranoid delusional twat but that does not make him a troll.

If I want to read news links about Thailand and Burma I’ll go to the Bangkok Post website.

And yet, here we are!

From Mom’s basement?

I was told by parents in no uncertain terms when I went to school IF I failed I would die in the streets.

Cultural ‘You Bring Honor to Us All’, and if not, ‘ain’t part of the family anymore.

Some bandy about the label of ‘Troll’ to anything they don’t like. Just like BLM. If there is truly something offensive, use the ‘report’ option to flag it to the mods.

Sorry to revive a derailed thread about nothing interesting.

My thoughts are my own.

I think that was the problem. Not enough adults and too many shit-stirrers with nothing else to do.

yeah plus you had certain posters (trolls) who prided themselves with their negative karma and encouraged them to troll more
