I use quote when something is suspect, which it is in this case. I didn't mean to suggest it was a literal quotation from you, but if you've kinda accused me of being just like him twice in as many days so I figured it was apt.Res Ipsa wrote: ↑Fri Mar 18, 2022 5:34 pmWhy did you put quote marks around something that actually isn’t a quote of anything I said? In my opinion, Troll Hunting, which I clarified to Marcus, is just as bad as trolling because both are toxic in online communities. In your hurry to show how smart you are by being the first to spot the troll, You called an ostensible new person a liar and a fraud. Based on nothing other than your own bias.K Graham wrote: ↑Fri Mar 18, 2022 4:12 pm
Troll hunters aren't the same as Trolls.
Refusing to be played for a fool anymore doesn't make me a "troll hunter." I'm not hunting anything, I'm just stating the obvious.
When you've been the victim of relentless trollish behavior for the past six months you tend to get a sense for what it is that drives them. Creating a moniker pretending to be his own wife is exactly the thing we should expect from a dedicated troll. He's already lied about being a roofer, and I don't believe he's actually married. Mike is in need of constant support from other people which is why he scoured through the board's history to find like minded "Conservatives" and then lured people like Markk back here to provide him with backup. It is also the point of him creating other personas to support himself.
Now you can believe whatever you want, but our refusal to doesn't make us "just like him."
You’re free to believe whatever you want. That has nothing to do with what you choose to post.
Based on nothing other than my own biases? No, based on common f--king sense. Good grief. And as I said, if she truly is his wife then she should understand the skepticism given her hubby's idiotic non stop ranting over the past six months.
So we have a troll. The facts are established that he lies about who he is, what he does, and we also know he creates sock puppets to provide himself support. He's been doing this for months.
And suddenly someone pops in to support him claiming to be his wife and we're supposed to just ignore his history?
