Well, there you go . . . looks like a shoe that could fit many feet, especially anyone well into the thick of a heated argument!Quote:
I have read in this forum for a long time, only intrepid enough to post on rare occasion.
I have read the posts of atomicbong, backinblack and golfarch, zimmer, etc., as well as all the other denizens of this "established online community," to quote Geo. So I understood who Zimmer was; I just didn't understand the animus usually directed against him, and especially the reference to troll behaviour as it is explained by Geo.
After all, without dissenting opinion there would be no debate
Never could understand why he would be banned and others still be free to roam at will, especially when so many seemed to miss his company when he was goneQuote:
"The basic mindset of a troll is that they are far more interested in how others react" - 
nah, that doesn't seem to fit . . . as he seems too committed to his point of view, as are we all, to merely be "in it for the thrill" of causing a reaction. . .
They're very tolerant you see... of leftists.
