just was reminded of a troll tactic, particularly with sock trolls.they'll create a more kind/gentle/friendly persona and basically follow certain members around and kiss up to them, probably in a 'divide and conquer' effort, i guess the hope being that once they begin pecking and trolling, said buttered up members will come to their defense, and then they can sit back and watch the mayhem they've created. of course ive never seen this actually work, but i guess in the troll's mind all members are slaves to herd mentallity, so its possible.

Right. I know anyone can troll. But, when a moderator does it, what's supposed to be done? Can a moderator be called out for being a troll? And what would anyone do about it?
That is why we have more than one moderator DK. That is why we also have an administrator. Now, if you think even an administrator can be a Troll...then..oh well...throw your hands in the air.

I sense you feel I'm trying to "talk shit". Don't take it personally.

No, I brought you a fact. As far as I recall we've never thrown mud at each other. So I don't take it personally.
good thats another one.
monitor the accounts of others to determine when they posted. if they happened to post withing the 24 hour span of christmas eve, attempt to convince others (who do not care) that this person spent all day posting.
ignore the irony of public crying and angry ranting brought on by another loveless and lonely holiday season. just focus on the win.

And you posted Christmas eve and boxing day according to your profile. 😬

when you are exposed as a failed troll, simply state "i did it for the lulz" or that it was all just a "social experiment".this is especially fail-ridden when used to punctuate a lengthy multi-post butthurt ranting baaawwww-fest.
See, I always assumed a post was fail-ridden when, despite it's juvenile nature, it was made by a lawyer with a degree in genetics and sociology.
