Default Trollish??

I havent been on in a week or so, and I'm nott trying to be a smarta$$, but what does MOJO mean by trollish? I just want to make sure I dont get in trouble.

Serious answers only please...

Well, there was some post on C4 General (I think) that had something to do with casting votes to get a forum member banned. I think that Mojo is referring to blatantly inappropriate posts like those.

I would agree with that as well. I was on yesterday, but not for long, and I'm just on now today (~4-5pm), but I don't recall seeing anything outwardly ridiculous other than that one (vote to ban) thread. Let's hope it isn't too much of a problem...I was just thinking about CF this morning when walking into work and how great it is. Sure, there's not much swearing, no street racing stories, etc., etc., but *that's* really what makes this place so reputable. It's not just your average run-o-the-mill garbage trash talking forum. Those places don't get recognition in national publications - this place does. I want to be a part of this place.

Let's keep it going the way it should be!!

A troll is someone that is set on causing controversy or conflict or cause annoyance or offense. There is a difference between disagreeing with someone and constantly hounding someone.

I noticed a blatantly racist remark stated earlier, I would consider it grounds for immediate perma-ban. There's a difference between an ignorant off-handed inappropriate comment and what I saw. Heck, I'd suggest an I.P. ban.

Regardless, if you have to ask if you're being 'trollish', don't worry, you're not.

Be sure to post in the approprate sections...

The racist post was posted here. Probably the reason Frank placed it here.

That pretty much says it all. And JCD, ditto on the racial slur too. Something that blatant should be grounds for permanant banning, no questions asked! That is beyond a
