What is it lately? There is a small number of posters notorious for calling anyone they dislike as a “troll” or accuse everyone who dares challenge them as all being one and the same poster. Enough is enough, already. One notorious poster, best known for his vitriol spewed against, literally, anyone who dare disagree with him as being the reincarnation of multiple screen names. His latest victims included ZeesKite, of all people, among many others. Another poster is constantly calling anyone too religious for her tastes as being a “troll”.
I know many other good posters (including coffee addict, gefen, smartcookie and others) have complained about this phenomenon, and yet it still persists.
How many more am yisrael chai’s do you want to chase away?
May 23, 2012 2:50 pm at 2:50 pm #1165831popa_bar_abbaParticipantWell, I make it a policy to not disagree with people on the CR. My only exceptions are for trolls and for “Acher”.
So if I disagree, I know it’s either a troll or Acher.
(You like the new way of refering to him?)

May 23, 2012 5:19 pm at 5:19 pm #1165833OneOfManyParticipantThere are a lot of people here that I disagree with and have disagreed with and still respect. A few that come to mind are Middlepath, aries, and Zeeskite. But I don’t think they are trolls. Engaging in nasty and manipulative tactics with your multiple usernames makes you a troll, whether you agree with my values or not.
May 23, 2012 7:54 pm at 7:54 pm #1165834I fully agree. I feel insulted, for example, by someone telling me that if I am unable to use an internet filter, I should either quit my job or join the Conservatives. I do not understand how a person can say such things instead of conversing in a normal manner without coming with such weird proposals.

So why don’t you refute our posts on that thread instead of venting here? (I think you totally missed Naysberg’s point, BTW. Ayin shom.)
May 23, 2012 8:29 pm at 8:29 pm #1165836☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantTCG,
I think you missed my point as well.

I myself don’t like trolls and call them out when I see them (It takes away the seriousness of the REAL posters)
the definition of a troll
1: to move around : ramble
2 a: to fish by trailing a lure or baited hook from a moving boat

June 30, 2015 4:38 am at 4:38 am #1165839This name is already takenParticipantRebyidd stop trolling
June 30, 2015 10:47 am at 10:47 am #1165840☕️coffee addictParticipantwow, i totally forgot about this thread!
i stopped trying to call people out for trolling and try now to just live with the posts (i think the cr would be dead without them) i started to assume rebyidd was trolling, but couldn’t care that much anymore
August 15, 2016 2:21 am at 2:21 am #1165841LightbriteParticipantDo trolls have a share in Olam Haba?

August 15, 2016 4:50 am at 4:50 am #1165845LightbriteParticipantOmgosh can we just move to Canada already please?
August 15, 2016 4:53 am at 4:53 am #1165846LightbriteParticipantIf it happens to be a T-term, is there a Canada aliya transfer station where we can chill without the T-word until Olam Haba or at least for the next four to eight years?
Quick what does the Megillah Esther say? There must be something about the T in there.
August 15, 2016 6:13 am at 6:13 am #1165847yehudayonaParticipantYou’d better hurry before Canada builds a wall and makes the U.S. pay for it. The good news is that virtually every U.S. resident who posts here is eligible to move to another country that’s less cold than Canada.
August 16, 2016 1:45 am at 1:45 am #1165849LightbriteParticipantyehudayona: True, plus Canada is already working on a virtual wall to prevent the American viewers who watch HGTV’s *Income Property*, and assume that the real estate is on American soil.
