trolling

Post by LAnative »

I have been accused of "Trolling". What is it?
I came to this Forum to gather facts in order to rationally weigh the pro's and con's and make a decison about retiring in HH. I have done that
research, I have enough info, "mission accomplished". But my efforts have been met with derision, school kid name calling and accusations of Trolling. If I am indeed guilty of such an "offense" I was unaware of it.
One phrase I heard repeatedly in Australia that has stuck with me is "Dry your eyes Mate". It is only words on a screen.

More information on the terminology can be found here:

We have had no shortage of spurious accounts on this forum so don't blame the members if they get the wrong idea now and then, they are only human. If they are mistaken then I apologize on their behalf.

While on the subject of reading material may I direct you to these two also:

trolling

Thanks for the very enlightening definition on trolling. I was completely ignorant of the definition. I will file that away in my memory bank for future reference.
I assure you I am NOT trying to ..."deceive about identity...disrupt discussion, give bad advice, damage group trust or ...post inflammatory, irrelevant or controversial topic messages on a forum..." I only wanted info from those who live there about HH not just the advertising in official websites about it which is deceptive in itself. I wanted to know the REAL life experiences of inhabitants, not the "come and spend your money tourist then get out" ads.
I have been to Thailand, thought it very beautiful and the people great. But I was only a tourist and that is no gauge of what it is like to live there.

To Randy Cornhole- Love the pic of Frank Zappa who lived near me his entire life. We even went to the same college. Saw him play in the 60's. Your online name is obscene tho' and too much information. (Cornhole? yikes!)

Cornhole a sport?

Post by LAnative »

Didn't know that "cornholing" was a recognized sport. I knew it was a sexual preference. I learn SO much from this forum! Shame on me for my ignorance! Shame on me for practicing Cornholing. I just didn't wanrtto admit it publically online with a name moniker. "Randy" I am a lot of the time.

Cheers

Couldn't resist this and it's not directed at anyone imparticular. I think this picture sums up the attitude of the whole forum well.
