It's Official...

we now have a Trolls Invasion!

There is a coordinated attempt by new members to attack StarDock.

Be careful to not fall into the silly traps.

I recommend a bunch of *Ignored* replies, that should solve it besides the normal Moderating locks.

Oh man... and the forums have been so cool so far... Well, I guess with success comes trollness

I been saying this for some time. It's been heading downhill for a few months now....

What i do find funny though is the "this is what happened to my friend". Did that particular poster really think anyone over the age of 4 was going to wear that?

There just asking for Brad to show them the ban hammer though that will probably justify their argument in their minds.

QFT.  Also I would like to attack Stardock for saying the guy they banned for spamming random text in the MP chatroom was trolling.  The correct term is spamming and being a prick; no self-respecting troll would pull a stunt like that.  Honestly, where did all the good trolls go?

Don't you know that your use of 'to' should be spelled "too" - as in 'also'?

 

What is this world coming to? Such illiteracy... tsk, tsk.

 

Until your comments there were no 'flametards'.

I suggest you to ban yourself from using the internet from some years until you mature and/or grow more self control. I suppose that some people find extremelly difficult to reply to something they disagree with with an "I disagree.", "You are exagerating, sir.",...

:puke:

Amazingly, they're not talking about you.

Well, not primarily, anyway.

Until you brought it up...

(Okay, maybe Zyx was...)

Yeah, I'll just give up now.  Thanks.

Huh? You make as much sense as a 4 year old with a mouth full of marbles.

Explain yourself.

It's like I'm really on 4chan.

IMO, Stardock should close the forums so that only people that have purchased from Impulse/retail copies of Impulse games can post.

Eh, I wouldn't go that far. We've managed to get quite a few people to buy Sins after they posted on the boards asking about it. Don't think restricting the forums to accounts that have something is sending the best message :P

If I were you I would just get a good laugh out of pyalot and related martyr-wannabes at their expense :P Don't take them seriously and you can actually enjoy them making idiots out of themselves!

Shhh!  If you tell them, they'll know.  :ninja:

These types have no idea how they appear. Personally, I find it entertaining.  B)

They don't bother me much anymore but they are neither entertaining.

However, they can be very off-putting to many people, especially new members to our community.

I wouldn't want trolls in my social club or at the local cafe or at the pub all the time . . why would I want them here?

Well, locking threads works as well. It's been long since pyalot's "Impulse DRM" thread could produce anything constructive that hasn't been hashed and re-hashed and that one can easily be locked.

The ban stick isn't the only measure of troll control :P

Of course it's obvious that he'd use the thread lock to support his "See I said Stardock was evil!" stance...
