how was that thread trolling? I copied and pasted an actual e-mail with a legitimate question. The responses in there were fun and I DID NOT TAKE OFFENSE TO THEM.

So when others start 1000000 different Bush bashing threads then that is not trolling?

Probably because it was headed 'like a rocket' in the same direction as your last few 'hot topic' threads, which consisted of a lot of forum members violating forum rules in a cyber stoning of you as the preceding threads would prognosticate.

but i thought it was funny. most of these guys were being facetious.

in that case they might as well delete my account because i will never be able to make a post.....i guess you can't be funny on here anymore.

kamil - some were but others weren't.

I'll put it as plainly as I can - this forum is for open discussion, and while there is latitude for posting potentially inflammatory/instigative thread topics, there's a fine line between doing just that and trolling.

Your recent thread topic history is veering towards the latter, and while some members may enjoy stirring things up/taking shots at you in apparent jest, others do get offended by the topics/posts, and it creates a difficult situation for Hattie and I to moderate.

As with the Bush bashing threads, they too frequently get closed if they escalate. If others are openly and obviously baiting off the mark, we'll close them before they can get going.

I've been as clear as I can here, if you wish to discuss it further, please PM Hattie or I.

Thanks,
C.
