TrustmeImLegit posted:If that oldschoolcommander guy is a troll he forgot the first rule of trolling. Your level of success is determined by how little effort (and how normal you are) you put in compared to the reaction it gets. If you find yourself writing paragraphs, odds are you are not trolling, and are putting effort in due to personal investment. The shorter, the better. The best troll is pissing people off with a "lol".

You should still be able to pull it off in a paragraph or two, otherwise spend your time on something else. Get in and get out.

Somebody tell them the next logical step here is to write an official threat assessment. It's pretty much the only path left to take now.

The posts from the Star Citizen faithful are so close to troll posts I have trouble telling the difference. Yes, the game that is years overdue sure did show up those other games that actually came out. Also, I hope the game never comes out.

Its not like they made like 5 in a row and decided to stop. No. Star citizen showed them all up with how epic star marine was. But wait. I thought game dev took 7 years minimum. I'm confused.

grimcreaper posted:Who is fuzzy again? Star Citizen that was close to the 'inner circle' as he had a fetish for designing spaceships; The Polaris was one of his designs, and he was a fairly prolific poster. I believe that he was also over here for a while. Also a personal windmill and lazy hook in the water for concern posting. MilesK posted:Fuzzy raped his daughter. Still not sure why people think it's funny. Alleged. He still needs his ten minutes in court. Colostomy Bag posted:Appreciate jury duty. If it is your first time you learn quite a bit. Especially if the venue is space court. Yeah, I hate that people avoid it, mainly because you could actually make a difference. Sure, it's a pain in the rear end, but it's a civic loving duty.

Like I got banned from RSI for saying I think its highly unlikely that 3.0 would come out in December and Chris probably knows that. One sentence. Normal opinion, people flipped out and I got banned for ten years from their site. True Trolling.

Short form effortless responses are the best way to deal with people who clearly are ideologically motivated to have no interest or attention in your argument. Only spend your effort where it's worthwhile.
