CossackCat: Oh I think my 565 threads in 6-7 years kicks the a*s of the number of troll profiles, it took your brain cells, to come up with in that time
Youcannow: All I see is bickering & people trying to prove a point , irrelevant of if it’s right or wrong . I know we have lots of different nationalities & races , but come in guys , is this really the place to vent your frustrations & anger ? No wonder the good people are leaving in their droves.
Thanks for the input happygo. But lemme reposte in quoes what comment 10 read on that archived thread... from 2005, and she said : "well i dont think its helped much because justadream was nasty to me today, i replied to a post and she told me it was none of my business (which it is anyones business because its a openthread)and because of that she told me to go take a pill. this was unfair because she made me out like a druggie and im not a take medicines because ive got endomeriosis. she really has hurt my feelings"
Either this is a funny troll comment, or it's symptomatic for the time. With other words mucho grande more sweet. NOBODY would write that today at cs, mark my words. And therein lies your answer.
Wasn't it sweet the way she spoke, 17years ago.. at an open forum? Can only be one out of two... and both options would be better than what we've got now. C?
None of my business, try being nice to her for a change

Parhaps its only me who see this. And I'll stop flogging the halfdead horse... soon. Well my point was this. Happygolycky posted that there were trouble here in 2005 as well hence it has alays ben bad, and maybe even better now. Well maybe.
But in her "evidence" (a thread from 2005) I found on comment 10 this:
"well i dont think its helped much because justadream was nasty to me today, i replied to a post and she told me it was none of my business (which it is anyones business because its a openthread)and because of that she told me to go take a pill. this was unfair because she made me out like a druggie and im not a take medicines because ive got endomeriosis. she really has hurt my feelings"
-obviously written by a woman. Or was it?
And my argument is that either that was naively open or it was a Troll from back when, and they did troll funnely like that 10-20years ago. Making it an environment where one dared to be 'heart-in-hand' to an unknown audience. Now.... a bit different... you can expect the nastiest direct attacks as well as systematicly thumbing downs, at any given moment.
Any clearer what I had in mind? I could be wrong. And with that I rest my case.

Actually forums (not just CS, but as a whole) were in their "hay day" so to say then. They were still fairly new. People were testing the waters . sadly they did not get better. As a result many forums seized to be. You aren't going to like this but I don't think that forums will get better. They are going the way of the dial up telephone their day is gone. Leaving forums not as used as once was. People are moving on to other options. We are actually fortunate CS has kept theirs. And as all things are in life, time changes everything. Trolls are a aspect of the internet that you will see in many forms on the internet. It is also a word that is thrown around so much it loses value. Do you remember when we had bulletin boards? I did not frequent them but I remember them. They were what I would call the mother of the forums. The beginning. The few encounters I had with the boards they did not seem as angry as the forums. The one thing that keeps me coming back to CS is that I honestly believe most the problems here are caused from communication error. That most people here are basically good people. And I enjoy hearing the different views, even when they are not my views I respect their right to have them. I have learned in my life that sometimes what I say is not what the person I am speaking to hears. I think that is why when I was married I was so happy we understood each others communication. Some how or another we spoke the same language. There was no reason to pick apart what we were saying to one another. We knew Okey dokey ice cream is on sale and I am going to get dressed and go buy come
It’s a fact that if a person has had their profile deleted by cs they are now banned for life and if they come back they come as an unwanted troll and cs will continually delete their profiles.
