A Modest Proposal

I copied the posts as I saw them. That site is difficult to follow. Too many immature animated gifs and bullshit clutter. Not to mentions the way quotes come out. That being said, If you would like to repost that particular quote in its entirety - do so. If I was incorrect, I'll apologize.

However, as I said previously, I am skeptical of the intentions of anyone from PD.
You are self admitted trolls.
Best thing would be to simply go away. Now I am done feeding you - ktxbai.

Its Cain on PD, Kaliayev here. Its not hard, you can just cut and paste the names.

You can turn all the graphics off, if they bug you that much. However, since so many people seem to be able to navigate them without problem, that you do seem to get confused seems to confirm the misunderstanding hypothesis.

The correct post is as follows:

Please explain how me talking things over in a calm and considered fashion can be considered trolling? I am honestly fascinated by this concept. I mean sure, in theory it is possible, but if anything, you're trolling yourself with your suspicions about me, when I am only acting in an open and non-hostile manner. Could I have some fiendishly clever plan to subvert the site? Possibly. But since you cannot seem to find any evidence for it, except to continually call me a troll, I can only assume you haven't found one.

I'd tell you because that's because there such a plan, but then we'd run into the wall of your circular logic again.

Sometimes Classicman, a cigar really is just a cigar.

That's very funny. If a troll trolls, and no-one notices the trolling, then is it really a troll?

So...if a troll falls in the woods and there's noone there tohear it, does it make a sound?

Well, its a trick question, because woods are never really empty. Plus, its vibrations and stuff in the air...

Fair enough kali. No apology necessary. I was perhaps a little irritable by that point in proceedings :P

Cool, no worries then.

Gosh...doesn't that safari thing seem a loooong time ago now?

[classicman]

So you do have a problem with me - OK.
Because I am distrustful of people from PD who have repeatedly proven and admitted themselves to be trolls. Well gee, now you want to come over here and play the whole good cop thing - and then tell me I'm being unreasonable for being suspicious? FAIL.

No, I have a problem with my interactions with you so far. I don't even know you, how could I have a problem with you.

Wait, let me try and parse that sentence. You have a problem with PD who have already shown themselves to be trolls, or you have problems with PD because everyone from there is a troll? I'm not sure I know which meaning you are aiming for, and the sentence structure isn't helping.

I'm not "playing" at anything. I'm sorry you think I am. You are being suspicious without good reason. You are using the actions of others to blame me and ascribing to me motives that are not apparent. What possible gain is there in me acting like this, except for attaining my stated aim? Please explain this, because I really do not understand how talking and explaining is "trolling" you.

I just want to know who the troll posting from West Chester is. Did we figure that out yet (I've just been skimming)?

A new member to PD. We picked up him from Livejournal, which to be honest explains a lot. By my preference, he'd go right back there.

Trust me when I say he is about as liked at PD as he is here.

Just making sure, we're talking about the OP, Arafelis, right?

I apologize for my unintentional mistake in copying the quotes.

I'll solve that this way - I'm taking a break from interacting with you. How is that. I'll be the bad guy and go sit in time out.

Does that mean you'll be joining Shawnee on the naughty step ?;P



[eta] and if so, can I come too?

I've set up camp on the naughty step. Next thing you know Sister Frances will make me beat blackboard erasers together for punishment. (The joke was on her: it was fun and most of the chalk ended up on the building.)

But, I might let classic and you join me if you give me your peanut butter sandwiches at lunch?!?

The real question is will this thread break 300 before the end of the day?

Later, everyone.

Crap, this doesn't bode well for hitting 300.

Apology accepted.

Well, if you feel its necessary. You don't need to, you could just treat me like you would any other member. That's all I'm asking, that I not be treated as some threatening, lying outsider.
