That is, by definition, a Troll.

Well, dang it. I was trying to leave. Here's what Wiki says:

"Do not feed the trolls" and its abbreviation DNFTT redirect here. For the Wikimedia
Category:Wikipedia_essays Category:Wikipedia_essays
, see "What is a troll?".


In
Internet_slang Internet_slang
, a troll is someone who posts controversial, inflammatory, irrelevant or off-topic messages in an online community, such as an
Internet_forum Internet_forum
,
Chat_room Chat_room
or
Blog Blog
, with the primary intent of provoking other users into an emotional response[1] or of otherwise disrupting normal on-topic discussion.[2]




I specifically asked for and tried to elicit NON-emotional responses. Nothing I posted was OFF topic, or irrelevant, OR inflammatory. Now, you and some others might have disagreed or disliked it. Controversial? Yes, but that is very nature of political discussions. But again, Troll I was not.

With all due respect, I think one day of involvement and 17 posts are insufficient to be able to make that judgement.

while i agree with your assertion, i feel compelled to point out that there is only one "e" in judgment, unless you're spelling it in Canadian

How long does it take to get approval to join FHOPolitics? If my (currnetly) pending request isn't approved, will it just stay pending indefinitely or will I be notified that I've been denied access to the private group?

I do have some reservations about joining- I really enjoy PC and enjoy the comradarie as well as all the great info- but hope this one channel in particular doesn't create an opportunity for shenanigans that could result in turmoil!

Still, I have to jump into the fray- if for no other reason than to jump in and bolster those who need bolstering for the commonwealth of all of us.
