PSA: Ignoring a Troll

By ryanabt, in Star Wars: Armada

Do you see that troll? Yes or No
If No, continue as usual.
If Yes, ignore. Do not post clever reply. Do not retort. Do not joke. Ignore.

Did your post a reply? Yes or No
If No, good job. You get an cookie.
If Yes, may the fleas of a thousand camels infest your armpits.

You can never stop Ben.

Corollary: See that Report button? That's the only way I've ever seen mods successfully summoned.

It's right there.

I've used it on a couple blatantly inflammatory posts in a certain thread, already today.

I do not require your approval.

Ahhh...but do you require my internet cookies? That is the question.

No. I don't want to know your search history. ;)

You sir are missing out on a long list of FFG Armada forum reloads, Armada Warlords lists, and Askhistorians on reddit.

They're probably internet-chocolate-chip.

So they're internet-deadly to me.

:(

Always two, there are. An admiral and his apprentice.

A guy walks over a bridge and a troll leaps out, demanding payment, the man outsmarts the troll using his wit and guile, and through convoluted repartee, the troll ends up paying the man.

A guy walks across a bridge.

One story is more entertaining than the other!

Let's place your first story into a syllogism.

Trolls win when given attention.

A man outsmarting a troll using wit and guile is giving a troll attention.

Therefore trolls win when a man outsmarts a troll using wit and guile.

I found your troll under the bridge!

I tried ignoring the Troll, but then Ben hacked my account and answered for me.

That is so classic Ben.

Don't feed the Trolls.

Shoot them instead.

PSA : I tried to be nice but you kept it up you have flagged for harassment.

And porn.

Blessed be the Ignore List. All should familiarize themselves with it's usefulness. Just sayin.

Thanks for the pro tip! I had to search around for it, so I'll mention that it's in My Settings under 'Ignore' Preferences.

Whoa! I had no idea we could do that!

So if we ignore someone, does it go both ways? As in I can't see their comments and they can't see mine?

I believe it only works one way. So once you put Bladewing24 and Flavorabledeez on your ignore list, you won't see their posts but they'll still see yours. I believe you get a "this post is ignored" placeholder whenever they respond to anything so it's far from perfect.

The report button would be my primary recommendation to handle rampant trolling.

Flavor isn't that bad. I get what he wants to do and the points he makes, but I think the way he goes about it is disrespectful to the people who actually play the game.

But yes, it just says the post is blocked but I can still view it if I want. I was hoping it would be gone forever like FB blocking. The temptation to be an internet social justice warrior and burn trolls with my flamethrower of compassion is still there.
