Real intelligent post!!!!!!!!
Always leave it to you to come up and show your intelligence!
But in all seriousness, we might get another le before Pop retires.

Must make your parents proud.
Why are you defending a poster who fits all your given definitions of a troll?
I've explained this over and over and over again.
Just because a well known troll accuses someone else of being a troll, does not make him a troll, in fact a case could be made that it vindicates his position and that in essence that he is not a troll since the accusation comes from a troll.
Just because you don't like a particular poster, does not make him a troll too.
And just because you have a strong differing opinion from someone, does not make them a troll either.
Plus I will usually take the side of a decent poster over a troll any day of the week.
Don't act like you don't know who the real trolls on here are, that is pretty evident.
If it is your opinion that ONLY a troll can make fun of a troll, then you might have a case, but it is my opinion that in that cir stance you are just making fun of (bashing) the trolls and nothing more, they are getting their just deserves and it isn't trolling. Naturally, the trolls think it hypocritical, but I think of it as karma.
Just my humble opinion on the matter.
You are welcome to disagree, but it won't change my opinion in the slightest.
We will just have to agree to be able to disagree.
Notice, unlike the trolls, I don't have to express my opinion on this to you by resorting to insulting you, I reserve the right to use the insults on the known trolls.
My opinion on this matter is irrelevant.
SBM has exhibited all the accepted behaviors of a troll over the past year. Shouldn't you be on his case as well?
Your definition of a troll seems to be wildly inconsistent. Kindly explain it here in this thread or point me to an old post of yours that gives your final, unchanging definition of what you're trying to fight against.
His definition of a troll:
Not a troll: himself, SBM, SA210, Avante
Troll: anyone who calls any of those four out on their bull
We have a difference in opinion, and even then I may be wrong.
But I don't think SBM is one. He seems to dislike trolls even more than I do.
And I seem to dislike them even more than Avante does.
It's all a matter of degrees in the final analysis.
And it may be a matter of opinion too, I can admit that possibility.
I go by past and present history of posts tbqh.
And I do not consider making fun of trolls as trolling, that to me is the same as a double negative.
I believe that most of us intelligent discriminating rational posters KNOW the difference.
We all have consciences, except maybe the trolls.
I have no idea what they have, if anything.
Some people on here think I am a troll simply because of my posting style of one sentence on top of another rather than in paragraph form.
Others think that because I make fun of and insult the trolls back, that I am trolling the trolls.
It is all a matter of opinion I suppose, but at the last all I need to read is their posting history.
A well known troll speaking for me?
You just validated that I am not a troll, thank you.
So since SBM has deliberately posted to draw attention and incite other posters (not just trolls), doesn't that make him a troll as well?
So since SBM has had a history of blanket labeling any poster that disagrees with his opinion a 'Popsucker', doesn't that make him a troll as well?
If SBM makes one post to backpedal out of the other posters have given him for his behavior over the past year, does that excuse all of his previous behavior?
Your definition of troll comes across as being based on whether you have felt insulted by that person. Doesn't that seem rather narcissistic to you?
I will not deny that you could make that case.
However I still feel that he isn't one, he really can't stand trolls.
Would you also say that Avante is a troll?
And I think narcissistic is way too strong a word.
Also SBM does not have your "blanket history" as you so claim, no more than you do yourself IMHO.
That is just your opinion. It appears that you interpret his posts where he insults known trolls as being a troll himself. I do not think that is necessarily true.
Notice, we are being somewhat civil in this discussion/debate, and that in and of itself is not trolling either.
Trolling, IMHO, usually emphasizes making fun of, insulting, and/or distorting and twisting a "decent innocent Poster" among other reasons, and NOT a troll who posts constant trolling posts.
The only one who SBM insults on a constant basis, that I have read, are those "well known trolls" such as chump, blake, and clipper nation for the most part.
He insulted me a lot, and caused me to insult him back, when we were arguing the Pop issues, but he graciously "owned" up to being wrong.
A troll never ever owns up to anything, at least not at this site.
So you figure it out and make your own conclusion, you are an intelligent poster, and for the most part civil and respectful, even to the trolls who IMHO do not deserve it.
Who here is a "decent innocent poster"?
Certainly not you, that is for sure!
No offense intended, it is what it is.

So who is?
Lots of posters don't sink to troll levels on here. IMHO they are to be commended.
Can we kindly get back on topic now?
And these posters are?
List 10.
I guess you can't stick to the topic.
More trolling as per usual.
Don't you ever get tired of it?
Because you are a well known troll with over 84,000 mostly troll posts, you do NOT deserve an answer.
But I will give you two quick examples of decent civil posters, Bruno and Chinook.
That is all you deserve to know.
There are many more, but you wouldn't know that, you are too busy trolling.
Your definition of trolling as being insult-centered is pretty myopic.
You can incite people without insulting them. Witness the numerous threads there calling out one player or another for perceived behavior.
Posters can insult other posters in one thread and give good takes in another. Does the former behavior invalidate the latter?
If a poster doesn't like you but gives decent takes elsewhere, does that make him a troll?
SBM's posting history has been one of inciting other posters and pursuing e-vendettas. One post about being mistaken about Pop (which he then invalidated by going back to his previous behavior) cancels all of that out?
Don't you see the inconsistency in your behavior? It's making you look like you're easily manipulated and SBM is the puppet master.
Apparently you missed the "among other things" part.
No surprise anymore. I can tell you just want to argue to read yourself argue, minus the rationality.

So now you're calling me irrational. Doesn't that cons ute as an insult?
You called me a respectful poster a few posts ago. Doesn't that make what you just did now trolling, by your definition?
Why can't you explain your own logical inconsistencies?

A well-known troll calling someone a well-known troll. You are validating his position. See what I did there?
This is your shtick when can't or are afraid to answer.
What if anakha asked you the same question?
You sure do seem irrational. A poster like you who has the intelligence to figure this stuff out for himself simply because it is simple to figure out after much detailed explanation, strikes me as being either irrational, being not as intelligent as I first thought, or trolling IMHO.
Interpret that however you want.
It is what it is.
Can't you stay on topic?
Why don't you start your own new thread on this subject that apparently means so much to you that you can't let it rest.
