This guy Spicoli is posting " Who gives a *** " . in a couple threads . It's not hurting anyone . But it is negative and uncalled for .

Looks like it. This guy has the same response to all the threads he posted in. That's ok, we were down to only two or three trolls, so I guess reinforcements were called in..

Troll , A troll is Internet slang for a person who intentionally tries to instigate conflict, hostility, or arguments in an online social community. Platforms targeted by trolls can include the comment sections of YouTube, forums, or chat rooms.
Trolling , in the context of the web, is the act of responding to online content or comments in a purposely disruptive fashion. The name arose as a reference to the way that online trolls try to lure victims with comments in the same way that fishers use bait and specially crafted lures to catch fish.



By definition , I guess there are a couple " trolls " in our midst . This guy just seems to be in a bad mood .

  And what does posting that insult say about you ? You can act all inocent . But anyone with any respect for himself and this Forum would not have posted that .
  I know because I have wanted to probably over 50 times in the last 10 years .

I find it funny that the trolls are not moderated . But I am . As if I am a threat to the forums .
In response to just the title of the active thread Assholes .

Not long after this post . I posted a take off on the Nike Swoosh ". JUST DO IT " .


But the one I found that was professionally created by someone else . Said " JUST **** IT " .

 Just that 1 word . I knew it was bold . But the word **** is posted dozens of times in these forums . Directed at individuals . Some much nastier than that .


There have been entire threads that the trolls dedicated to completely degrading me , discrediting me , insulting and flame baiting at its worse .Some are still active in these forums . Some were completely deleted they were so bad .


I didn't respond at their levels . I just shined it on . But it was very hard on account of the things they said . Of course inside I wanted to call them every expletive in the *****  ***** *******. But I didn't .


Nothing at all happened to the perpetrators ..


But I post one gif in a humorous way . With the same word you see all through these forums . And I get permanent moderation for life .

I didn't insult anyone . I wasn't directing negativity toward any persons . 


I never do . 99% of the time I post positive , encouraging , uplifting comments and compliments . Polite , mature and friendly .


That is even how I respond to the haters .


So how much sense is there to permanently moderate me for the use of 1 4 letter word . Used in a light hearted way ?


It is a power trip . They did it because they are bad at their jobs . And don't have a clue how to manage their power to improve these forums .


The only real threat that I am . Is calling them out like this and exposing the truth .


And this is just a small mention ( no details ) of what are so many more poor practices and bad decisions and anything but real moderation in that department . Not much different from many of the other admins making decisions all throughout WGT that has put this game in the exact status that it is in right now .


I just needed to say that . I'm not living in bitternes or disdain . Disappointment yes . Anytime I or anyone is disciminated against . There really is no recourse . It is what it is . And sadly have to live with it . Without being sad . Lol . Alot of times I just laugh at how ridiculous it is .


Unbelievable .
