You know, when I first signed up for this site, I was actually pretty worried about being banned for saying something negative about something because it seemed like people were getting banned for it all the time.

I'm certainly not promoting "actual" trolling, because it can reach an uncontrollable level that becomes annoying, but there's no reason someone can't speak their mind.

Glad things have changed.  Thank you.

You're not a troll, you're a pain in the ass.

It depends on the definition of troll. You're not a troll in my book, since your basic arguments are rational (after all even when you use ridiculous arguments, it is just to prove some rational points).

I don't think it would change my forum visiting activity if trolls all got up and left suddenly. I tend to just read what everyone is thinking on topics without providing much input and just clarifying miscommunication and add neutral facts to help the discussion (or argument) move along as smoothly as possible. I agree with you on the two opposing (but civilized) factions all bringing facts to the table and discussing their views. It's a great way to learn about the topic under discussion.

Plus trolls make for some pretty fun reads. It only sucks when they become over-involved in a thread and practically take over it spouting all they can to support their view and attempting to discredit anything anyone in opposition has to say with little to no info to back it up.

So in short, they're good... in small doses.

I tried, but I failed. 

I wanted to find that New Super Mario Bros. Wii article you enjoyed posting so much. The one that supposedly makes it out to be a clone of LBP.

I was going to use that reveal why you downplayed the LBP story, but sadly I couldn't find it.

Now so do I.
