Last night was weird

Drgordy Permalink
Drgordy The mass number of PT 'ers trolling .net kind of ruined it for me last night. I mean some of it was funny, but there is a reason why I troll PT and collect my faith in humanity on .net.

To prevent a future event like this, how about a 24 hour waiting period between creating an account and being able to post?

FWIW, the vast majority of the PT'ers posting last night already had accounts. There have been other invasions.

I think we do have a probation period before you can post, actually. Maybe I'm wrong.

harroldHOOD The trick is not letting them know you care. PTers can smell a sensitive sally from 100 miles away and will troll them off the tronz faster than you can say "Troy is Cressman's father"

careful_w_that_axe_Miller I think we should encourage them, assimilate them to .net ways, 50% increase in unique users from recent Sat averages.

Seems like most people on .net are on PT, plus I'm curious if there is a bounty for that Who-llis character ha ha

Titles have never been terribly important to me, you can find yourself anywhere if you don't care enough.

Drgordy It doesn't, I PT with the best of them. I prefer to keep my .net and PT separate.

Me too. I feel if they were properly versed in the amazing features .net offered they would bring the lulz a little better. It could also get pretty horrifying though.

I mean... they sounded like my parents bitching about the universal TV remote.

As do I. In fact, I have similar feelings about .net and PT as I do about reddit and 4chan respectively. On PT and 4chan, I mostly lurk, and wade through loads of shit to occasionally find the golden lulz. On .net and reddit, I am a more active commenter (not _super_ active here but I visit almost every day), and I try to have meaningful conversation and a few laughs (not of the trolling variety). Anyway, that's my analogy.

BernardShakey I thought they were supposed to be huge assholes? The only thing that sticks out in my mind is the .net jews thing. We have bigger assholes that frequently post than the other troll attemts I saw.
