Is this guy [Cincinnatus] trolling on my thread or am I just an idiot?

if it looks like a troll, smells like a troll, posts like a troll.......it probably is
|

That's what you get for asking the Internet to do your homework for you.

Hey, I can take a hit;
This guy has five million posts and says he's a marine for 20 years and that holds sway with me. Obviously the guys an honest decent guy with the integrity of a marine, etc. He's served to keep me safe for 20 years. If he says I am always an idiot, I'll consider it But what is trolling, if that isn't? |

You need to stick to your college courses..hunting trolls is not your gifting.
You've been here since March and have as many posts than most of us who have been here for years. If anyone has "troll" markings on them, it would be you. Shut up and enjoy those who have made this board great...and no, it is'nt a college kid with gotcha lines fed from his Professor. |
|
Not trollling at all, just making points for what you don't agree with. In any case, I do tend to agree with his posting on your topic.
|
|
just sounds like 2 people with different views discussing it
and by the way, 2500 posts since march? dude, get out in the sun! |
|
I haven't met Cincinnatus personally, so I had to change the quote a bit before I could say +1. Oh, and +1 |
|
|
He's not trolling, so I'd have to go with option #2
P.S. - He's right. |
|
Cincinnatus? Trolling? Me thinks not!!
Learn the difference between trolling and constructive criticism. Better yet, expand your horizons and knowledge by heeding said constructive criticism.... |
|
I wouldn't say he's trolling, I'd say he's kicking your ass in a debate.

This bay be full of Trawlers....
I think Chapperjoe is searching for another explaination and or opinion ...this one on trolling. You guys jumped on him pretty quick without really addressing his question. Chapperjoe has asked many questions on the forum concerning his weapons and accessory purchases. He respects your views and often makes a decision based soley ( is freakin' soley a word or am I making them up again) on the advice given by all of the Members kind enough to post replies. If anyone wants me I be walkin' the plank! MT |

+1 As you only provided two options--you are an idiot. No offense intended. The problem with youth is, it's wasted on the young. Sad that. |
|
|
Answering your questions and challenging your assumptions is NOT trolling....
|
|
What the hell - he asked if either cincinnatus was trolling or if he was an idiot. His question was adressed when people said it wasn't trolling. Want more do you want, a pacifier and a pat on the back for him??? |
|
|
no he's not a troll, yes your an idiot, and three Cincinnatus is def in, or has been in the USMC, I believe what he says about his credintuals
|
|
If you feel comfortable doing that ...but I think the answer from Lumpy196 would suffice:

I am standing next to the guy in the pointy wooden shoes. |

as regards my post count.... I don't get out much. I don't know how it is for other fields, but I have so much reading to do that I literally only rarely leave my apartment. It's disgusting. I literraly read from sunup to sundown. every day.
|
|
DO your own damn homework. Its just cokkege. The key to college is realizing you must learn everything to pass...but only long enough till you get out in the real world, then you can forget 3/4 of the BS they taught you. SGatr15 PS And now Cincinnatus is going to have a swollen ego |
|
|
and WTF is everyone jumping on my post count for?
Doesn't everyone else check arfkom four or five times an hour? |
|
No, I only spend 15 minutes here each day. SGatr15 |

Cinci gave a cogent, reasoned, and logical answer in response to your scenario. When you insisted on not only arguing his points, but also being insulting he responded with this:
THAT is not trolling. In fact he was more polite then he should have been IMHO. I still can't believe you called him, "supermarine" in the next post. I doubt you would do that in person. The only thing worse than beer muscles is internet muscles. That one comment qualifies YOU as a troll. BTW- Cinci only trolls Phila. Eagle threads. |
|
|
He's very hip in the ways of ghey culture - but he ain't no troll.
|
|
+1 His Gaydar-Fu is strong. |
|
|
I get this all the time. It's usually the answer of people with more brawn than brains. Saying, "oh yeah, say that to my face" doesn't make you right. If anyone wants they can come kick my ass. We'll have a party. But I don't go down easy. |
|
|
Doh!! |

If nothing else the dog could eat your homework GM |
|
|
Looks like you got 20. |
|
|
Doesn't look to me like he's trolling.
Looks to me like he offered an intelligent response that disagreed with you. Then you got snippy and he defended his position with more insight. Sounds to me like he was right. You just didn't want to hear a differing opinion. That isn't trolling IMHO. |
|
Hmmmmm.... Gay? |

Is Cincinnatus E.F. Hutton? |
|
|
Listen to this....
I can be just as much of a jackass as the next guy. I do know a few things about a few things, though. I rarely talk about things about which I know not. Of course, in politics, most things are simply opinions, and well, you know what they say..... |
