Troll

      Well, if you've been watching my comments today, you know that I've been dealing with a troll. At first I responded, but now I've simply deleted everything he/she has said as well as my responses. Life is too short, and I should have never given him/her the attention. He/she may continue to comment, but I will be deleting them.
      I appreciate those that defended me so much, but I've deleted your comments, too, since they didn't make any sense without the troll's. I will continue to delete his/her comments until he/she gets tired of this and goes somewhere else to play. I don't want to turn on comment moderation since that's a pain, but I will if I must. 51313 Harbor Street was never meant to be a place to debate anything. Those who wish to do so should check out the blogs of 4 Rows Back or Erudite Redneck. You'll find plenty of people there who like to rumble.

Well dag nab it! I missed it...

Just so you know, I would have come to your defense too. :)

That's the good thing about Trolls, ya know, they are very short in stature, and brains...wit...charm. So easily they can just be brushed aside. There are so many more things to be looking up to, anyway. :)

You didn't miss much, Michelle. I should have never responded to him/her in the first place. We've went nearly 30 minutes now with no more troll comments. He/she has went off to play somewhere else. I hope.

He/she was very rude and certainly not welcome here. I don't know why people do that. It's just so immature and sad.

SBB said...

Yes, Gloria, but it was a bit of bummer today. Hopefully he/she/they have moved on to greener pastures.

SBB said...

Well, Slim, you were right, but really you need your mouth washed out with soap!

Just out of curiosity, was it a troll by the name of venomstraight or something like that?

He just visited the blog of a friend of mine. Had you blog's URL as his homepage.

SBB said...

No, Anon, the comments were mostly under Anonymous with two under Gayle and one under Randall. But that anon didn't know that I know Randall in the real world and I knew he would never say those things to me. Of course, it occurs to me that you could be the first anon playing some sort of game. Still as long as you're not rude or profane, it doesn't bother me. If, however, what you say is true, please tell your friend to delete any reference to my blog and assure him that I don't troll people.

No, I am not a troll. Gayle is my friend's name, and I can assure you that she is not one either.

The punk insulted Gayle on her blog, and this was the following conversation...(I am anon)

Mr Venom

You can give Gayle a sincere apology right friggin now. There is no need for stupid childish personal attacks like that.

Mr Venom

This is what I believe...you are a little troll.

Actually a big troll.

That was pretty much the end of it. I will pass your message on to Gayle.

Michelle said...

Well I am sorry you had to have that stamp on your day, Tech.

Here is to a better evening ;)

Gayle said...

And I would have come to your defense as well.

"Anon" told me on My Republican Blog that someone came in here and used my name to insult you. I came here immediately to let you know it wasn't me! I've never done that on anyone's blog, and if you come to mine you will see for yourself that I'm not that kind of person!

I wish there was something I could do to prevent them from doing that. It's horrible what these people will do!

I just wanted to assure you it wasn't me. I've just been under attack myself on my blog for posting a new scientific discovery that I knew the moonbat environmentalists weren't going to like because it will hurt the Kyoto agreement, so I rather expected it. I didn't expect them to go around blogging insults in my name!

Gayle said...

Maybe I should feel flattered that I ticked them off that much, but somehow I would just rather they would leave all of us alone.

SBB said...

Gayle, this is very strange doings, but I'm glad to hear you weren't the troll. And I certainly wasn't the troll on your site. I think the troll followed me here from ER's site because he/she quoted from a comment I made on ER's blog. Anyway, it's been a couple of hours now with no trollish remarks so I hope it's over. I hope it's over for you, also. Thank you for coming by and telling me. I appreciate it.

Gayle said...

It's over for me, Tech. I banned them. They can't get in unless they use a different computer, but I will ban that IP as well.

They are trying to divide conservatives, obviously. They have only accomplished one thing: They gave me another site to visit, so maybe I should thank them... but I don't think so!

I must admit it upsets me that they came to your blog and used my name. Remember my Avitar. If there's no Avitar, it's not me. I change it from time to time, but I always have an Avitar.

Erudite Redneck said...

So, I have trolls? Is that like sayin' I have blogcooties? I'm hurt! Not. :-) Sorry I missed a good row!

Mark said...

Oh Thanks a lot, Tech! Send the trolls to me, as if I don't get enough of them!

I used to like you.

Gayle said...

I came back in to tell you Tech, that I've been attacked by the same troll on the same post. Evidently he used a different computer, and that IP is banned as well. Sooner or later the creep will run out of computers, but I wanted to warn you, he may come here again. If he posts in my name again at least you will know it isn't me!

Michelle said...

lol Randall

I wonder if there is insurance for that?
