looks like you ruined your life.

im no better tho ,
i dropped out of high school when i was 16 never got my GED.
when i apply for jobs i always mark i graduated high school and its never really a problem.

if you got nothing to lose why not go for it?
create a character , explore the world.
move large amounts of drugs and make a shit load of money , go out of the country , fuck some women and enjoy life again.

but then again... i guess your drug addiction will keep you from doing anything to better yourself in the future , so you will probably die from an OD.



I'd honestly let it stand... It might not be the nicest thing to hear, but it brings about a point, even if done so sarcastically or even moderately mockingly.

if the user posted this, and then got a response from you, and continued to post in this fashion (egging you on so to speak) i'd ban him in a heartbeat.

but like i said, use the notify button, the green team will be all over that :notify:



If I saw this as a stand alone post, I wouldn't edit it either. I agree with everything you said, Zippoz.

It happens in every forum that gives the option of posting anonymously in and is also a side effect of SA being shutdown.



This...

Bring back shroomerites anonymous.

I'm sure I'm not the only one who has "trolled" the other forums which allow anonymous posting just out of spite and boredom due to the loss of shroomerites anonymous.

"in times of widespread chaos and confusion, it has been the duty of more advanced human beings - artists, scientists, clowns, and philosophers - to create order. In such times as ours however, when there is too much order, too much m management, too much programming and control, it becomes the duty of superior men and women and women to fling their favorite monkey wrenches into the machinery. To relieve the repression of the human spirit, they must sow doubt and disruption"

I'm glad you guys seem in agreement, but the fact is that is not what happened.

That wasn't a standalone post and took more than 1 notification of other posts (I know, by more than 1 person) to get a mod to take action.

I also believe it was another mod (from outside that forum) that was finally notified, and then banned the user. (And that's nothing against this mod, just maybe we need more.)

To the poster who advocated the ignore feature, that issue was already addressed, and your point taken. (thought counter-point was given, as well)

The other counter-point is this: Can you "ignore" an anonymous poster? We either need to crack way down on anonymous trolls, or add an "ignore anon" feature.

I stand by my point that those seeking discussion, advice, etc, are far more in their right using these forums than any type of troll. And if you ask why a (possibly mentally ILL and emotionally unstable) poster cannot ignore a troll, I would ask you why a troll can not just ignore an OP?

So far as I'm concerned, that brings the question back to "which had the right?"
