with the intention of baiting other users into an emotional response.
Isn't it a huge assumption to make? Assuming someones intentions that is.
I mean some may assume that you began this thread just to bait others into an emotional response.
Would they be correct?

The trolls and the trolled
there's just something wonderfully condescending about labelling someone a troll
Hmmm. Yes, it seems.
it's a special kind of one-up-man-ship game of rudeness that works wonders on boards where being a dick is the cool thing that everybody just has to do.
Does it seem to you that the dick won't admit to being a dick and instead calls someone else a dick.
but... here?
I think there are plenty of dicks here who think it's cool to be a dick, that is until they become the dickie. Then it ain't so cool.
Seems some here have spent a long time being the big dick without being seriously challenged in their dickness. So when a bigger dick shows up.......

Re: The trolls and the trolled
take my word for it, you don't know "dick."
Is that an argument from authority?
I think pretty much anyone can be a dick given the wrong circumstances.
this is an extremely level-headed and respectful group on the whole.
Mmm, comparatively, yes, I agree, but there are always exceptions.
