must be a youth thing - i think they are a big bore and it embarrases me to be associated with the forum when it's taking place.

i find it far more entertaining joking around with the regulars and sharing thoughts on movies and the business of film

Yeh it kinda annoys me when this forum takes turns for the worst. I usually just give it a break for awhile. Its kinda weird comming back and there's a new gang of people on here. I guess I've been comming here on and off for ages now... maybe I'll stay this time.

i let people fight their own fights - i hate pack mentality ..

the only time i get involved is when i see racist or other such stupid shit spewing out.

for some reason HDC attracts stupid, like flies to shit.

I stick with the simple "You're an idiot" line. Not much more really needs to be said. But seriously, this whole "don't play into their hands, don't stoop to their level" line.... who cares if I play into the person's hands? If he/she wants to type some crazy nonsense just to make people curse him/her out, I'll give them the satisfaction.

It's not like they're really gaining anything tangible out of it... it's not real life, it's on a computer.

what is tangable ?
you evoke a response/emotion in real life - thats not tangable either ..

ww've had a couple of waves of bullshit here in the past and you end up wading through pages of dreck to get to the one or two intelligent/amusing things that might have been said all weekend long ...

its a proven fact that when this shit keeps up a forum loses a lot of good posters .. people who want to contribute but cant be bothered with shuffling through garbage..
I was tempted to leave as wella couple of times ...

and then what do you get - eventually just a dried up little battle ground for morones - and eventually just a dead forum .. ask around - its happened on lots of others ..

for some that is the ultimate goal .. for others they dont realize what they are doing - they are just foolish enough to think that it's cool .. big badass on a keyboard.

come home from school and try to start shit because if they did it anywhere else they'd have their heads handed to them on a platter.

i guess it's always going to be around - that never changes ..

i just hope that potential trolls can somehow get a sense of how pathetic and embarrasing they are ..

In interesting philosophical issue is raised here, I think. "Tangible" means something that has a physical form, that you can touch. Technically, emotions aren't tangible. But anyone who's had 'em will probably agree that, indefinable as they are, they're real.

I believe that these spamtrolls, as I call 'em, cause real violence--but it's emotional--it's the type that doesn't draw blood.
