High Hi From HI
Question:
If I'm 51 years old, does that automatically make me a JA troll in some ppls eyes?
I was just calling them by another name this whole time and did not realize it.
I called them TROUBLEMAKERS!!!
This is clarifying:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Troll_(Internet)

Hahaha!
So it turns out that the trolls were calling me a troll because that's what trolls often do!
I am often bound to humorize a situation, but my intent is not meant to be negative.
I don't consider myself a troublemaker, unless you count making trouble for troublemakers themselves. :-P
But seriously, if people take themselves or what they're saying way to seriously, I will usually make fun of that and maybe spoil it for them. :lol:

I did have a lot of punk angst in my early years (like 22 lol) and a general rebelliousness against the "system" so when slaves to the system of lies start complaining or whatnot, I laugh and/or call 'em out. it's a given and IMO, all truth lovers should do it. I got too much inside knowledge about it to have anything but disgust for how things work on the internet, let alone in the western world. But I try not to let it make me jaded.

In my time as a banhammer wielding admin in JSU, I learned to spot troublemakers (trolls) right away. I started training our admins on how to be STRICT with troublemakers, not to ban them, but to remove their pleasure factor immediately. The demise of ampunish and gunpunish warrants creativity when removing the pleasure factor for trolls. I could discourse on this... :-P

If I get lamed by a troublemaker and KR admins are clueless as to the malevolence of a particular troll, I may become critical of their effectiveness. :-P

It's just a game right?

If you take all the troublemakers out of JA, how many ppl would be left?

Thanks KR, you guys keep on keepin' on!

P.S.
I saw trolls in that movie Willow... they were dirty and small. One of them got zapped by magic, then dunked, then it turned into a giant two headed, fire breathing dragon/monster! :D
Then there's those trolls in the hobbit unXptdjourny... Bert, and his buddies, sitting around the fire preparing to eat some ponies.. They turned to stone when exposed to sunlight. hmmm. But not before amassing a considerable amount of treasure and fine weaponry. :-)
And why didn't the other trolls turn to stone during those big middle earth battles? Which happened to have taken place in full daylight??

Syz: you're all right by me buddie <3

You are one of the first guys I ever met when I first started playing, and I was flip/flopping between joining JSU or KR.

Makes me happy whenever I see you on server too! You'll never have a problem with KR, maybe perhaps an sensitive individual, but not the clan - you're all cool :)

Yea Willow was a great classic film. Willow is almost like Hobbit films but in a different way lol.
