Seeing as I've been accused of trolling here's a definition from wikipedia;

 

"In Internet slang, a troll (/ˈtroʊl/, /ˈtrɒl/) is a person who sows discord on the Internet by starting arguments or upsetting people, by posting inflammatory,[1] extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community (such as a newsgroup, forum, chat room, or blog) with the intent of provoking readers into an emotional response[2] or of otherwise disrupting normal, on-topic discussion,[3] often for the troll's amusement."

 

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_troll

 

If you think any of that definition is applicable to any of my posts then report me to the webmaster - why not help the webmaster out by providing examples if you're so certain. 

 

Why not post your examples here and lets see if they're valid.

 

I've reported one person for trolling already, when asked several times if they were intent on perpetuating the conflict - they simply ignored the question every single time and carried on trolling in contrvention of the site policy:

 

"Trolling, or flaming other members with the apparent intent of inciting or perpetuating a conflict or argument."

 

If you're simply upset because my opinions differ from your own particular world view then that is fine, but it's not trolling. I do not post on dawlish.com to provoke or for my own amusement. But if provoked by discourteous individuals who shout down anyone with an opinion they disagree with I won't just shut-up and be bullied off the site.

This post has been hidden due to too many reports.

@webmaster's response to reports of trolling made against me; 'I already looked at the posts and decided they did not need moderating'.
