I can safely ignore the thread - the first post, anyway. But no, when he presses the point on other people and insists that their own value metrics are invalid? THat's ridiculous. You'll notice that my first real reply to him was essentially the same - the others before that only outlined my own value metric.

I have no shame in coming in here and saying this whole exercise is intellectually bankrupt. Trying to rile people up is a shitty thing to do.

Yes, trying to rile up other people is mean-spirited, but it's your choice to let it happen. He doesn't have that power, only you do.

No. People are not at fault for being victims, because not all of them hold that other's value sets for video games don't matter. He doesn't have the power to control their reactions, but he does have the power to reasonably expect that their reaction will take a certain form, which would mean he's trolling.

So which is it, Rol? Is he trolling, or is he just attacking other people's ways of thinking? Which option should he be called out on? Which not?
