Usually posting single topics or answer to purposely start fights.
Or about 90% of what you'll find in PARF.

It's censorship to be banned from a BBS you don't own? How does that work? Did the gov't. come after you? No? Then it's not censorship. You're free to write and say anything you want and others are free to ignore it.

Troll (Internet)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from Internet troll)
Jump to: navigation, search
"Do not feed the trolls" and its abbreviation DNFTT redirect here. For the Wikipedia essay, see "What is a troll?". For other uses see Troll (disambiguation).
An Internet troll, or simply troll in Internet slang, is someone who posts controversial, inflammatory, irrelevant or off-topic messages in an online community, such as an online discussion forum or chat room, with the intention of provoking other users into an emotional response[1] or to generally disrupt normal on-topic discussion.[2]
DNFTT, shhh! we have some amongst us

I won't post links to the other website because I don't want their server to crash. LOL

Besides, I don't need to help them with their website hit count. LOL

As NOTFARNOW posted I been thrown out of better places than that. LOL

Well, Livi, you're from Sweden where trolls are a historical/cultural thing,
hence you are tolerated to avoid any claims of discrimination of Sweeds.
