This should be the last of the mtrulz _______ ect. threads. This has been a bad joke that got out of hand and only got worse. What we have been doing the last couple of weeks may be entertaining to some, objectionable to others has turned into a Giant paint in the ass to the moderators.

What we have been doing amounts to cyber bullying and should not be acceptable. Verbal jousting with a 15 year old should only be done by 15 year olds. What we have been doing is just plain wrong.

I commend the moderators for putting up with this shit as long as they have been. Them refusing to stop this behavior is a testament to this sites montra of letting people have fun...even if it is objectionable to other people.

I have asked Blue to perma ban this account as it has long since survived it's usefulness.

If you are wondering, I WAS using the mtrulz girlfriend account
I cannot believe that I acted like I have and tried to hide my identity.
This is the only other user name that I have created, I would ask that anyone else that created other usernames be mature enough to PM the mods and have them close your accounts, or at least have the civility not to use them any more

mtrulz, I hope that you have learned something form this aerobic exercise in futility. If you feed the trolls, you will gain nothing by giving them more food. Take a moment to sit back and digest some of this. Learn a little from what I say. It will make you a better person if you learn how to ignore the bullshit and pay attention to the bull.

I am sorry for the length of this post. I feel it just needed to be said.

It has, quite frankly, made this site slightly less enjoyable to visit.

I dont think most of this would happen if mtrulz didnt stir the pot and keep it going. Take for example when NCF left the site and all of a sudden all the talk about him stopped and it seemed all the attention went to mtrulz because he did the same thing by keeping the threads going and adding fuel so I think mtrulz has just as much to do with this as everyone else.

Thank goodness this is freehuddle where these threads arent deleted the second they go up and we can have a little fun so credit to the mods for that one.

BTW, Ive noticed that NCF is burning it up over at VaJJ and he wants to know what everyone is doing tonight. NCF, you are a creep. The next topic he will start will be "Do you worry about how much other people are on a message board?" or wait, he already started a thread on that over there

I agree it's stupid, but when I look at the forum page it's pretty easy to pick out the three threads about that shit, so I ignore them and look at the other 47 threads on the page. It's not like anyone is forcing you to open it, and by no means is it flooding the forum to the point where its unavoidable.

I think some of you just need to find something better to worry about. If it is legitimately affecting your experience here it's because you're looking for it.

I didn't even ever open the threads. But, what it comes down to, for me is this:

-a grown man is (possibly, I just don't buy this mtrulz is a freshman stuff.) posing as a 15 year old to get under people's skin (and that was going on in almost every thread, regardless)

-grown men are posing as teenage girls, etc. and saying just ridiculous stuff.

For me, I didn't even want to be around the site as much, whether I had to open the threads or not. It didn't cause me great worry, and I wasn't upset, just more in awe of the fact that it was going on and people were on some level enjoying it. The fact that it had gotten to that point, made the site less enjoyable to visit, for me, I suppose is what I'm saying.

I get what you are saying. I still personally am able to ignore it, but I definitely get the angle you come from.

Good post Devil.

Hope he listens to ya. I tried telling him awhile ago to shut up and ignore them, and that they would go away, but, he didnt listen to me.

I'd much rather read or skip over some stupidity than to read a bunch of grown-ass men wolfpack or pile on somebody else.
I mean I realize that it's fun to jab somebody every now and then, but it's not funny when a pack of the same people do it over and over and over again. We all know who they are.

My 9 year old nephew knows when to "stop", and guys that are 18, 19 - 30 years old do not?? Really???

D.A., good post and thanks for asking for the others to stop also!

This is the point of us being less strict. This thread is a testament to our way of thinking. We hope that people learn to police themselves and realize that feeding the trolls accomplishes nothing and the best way to get rid of annoying people is to simply ignore them. If people eventually stop responding to them, they stop receiving the only thing they actually want (Attention) and they just go away.
