What do you call a group of troll hunters?

Children.

Thanks Alphagene for providing the term troll hunters.

Actually, It’s new to me, so I’ll feel free to use it. Thanks.
(By the way, This month’s Playboy reports the new teen term that repaced last year’s “That’s like, so two months ago.” is “That’s so dot com.”

(As for “Get with the times, man.” I’d guess that lost currency in the 50’s.)
(As for “Maybe I’m just having my period or something”, that was a 70’s line.)

Anyway, enough of childish moderators and back to childish children.

What strikes me about this following comment on me is how childish it is. I wish I had a larger vacabulary here, but the word just keeps jumping out at me. I guess that must be because my own children are that age (9, 10 & 12).

Not much of a rant, I’ll grant, but it’s all I’ve got. To stay with the clichés, It’s my rant and I’m sticking to it.

I’ve got it!

Adriatic Ionian Ægean hunters!:rolleyes:

To quote one of Tollbooth Willie’s customers,

:wally

So, Mr. Ægean, what do you call a group of Troll-Hunter Hunters? That’s right, the same thing as a group of Trolls!

Hey, did we ever settle on a name for a group of trolls? Hmm…

I believe “Felch of Trolls” won.

I’d have to agree with you there. Children all.

What could be more childish?

The scene is classic.
Parent:
“Children, learn a new word today? Mustn’t use it. It’s naughty.”

One child to the other “Naughty! Oh boy! Let’s go to the park and call Bobby that word right now!”

Another classic scene that you don’t see much of after kindergarten:

Group of people socializing.
Moron walks in and insults them for no reason.
Moron gets his ass kicked.

Since you’re bringing all this shit back up. I never got my answer to my question. Please see the post by me just after the one linked to aswell.

Sorry, I never saw the question. (I don’t read every post in a thread. Who can?)

Yes, I realize now somebody (you?) said SB and I thought it must refer to SDMB. I’d have never guessed what else.

Were you the moron in that picture. Sorry if I don’t recall who was insulting me for no reason.
Hope your ass isn’t too sore as a result.

Aahhh, pity you didn’t see that and clear it up earlier. Emotions were running high because of people hijacking a condolence thread. You got dragged into it because it seemed you also were on the side of the hijackers.

Fair enough.

I must say the “condolence” aspect was lost on me. I haven’t seen a thread anywhere on the board on any topic that wasn’t hijacked.
Thread about personal tragedy and marriage breakups and gnashing of teeth over news reports of murders all seem fair game for hijacking here.

Also, I’m not much impressed when “emotions run high” and it turns out to be the same people who are always gushing and moaning. The hyperbole about a simple slow day in traffic gets heart-rending responses! Reading these threads is often like watching a melodrama. Not that’s a bad thing, but it does get like Jerry Springer, not quite to my taste.

Where’s SILENT-BOB when we need him?

These threads ( here and here ) were not hijacked. Is the condolence aspect lost on you for these aswell? One being a continuation of the thread that started this whole thing in the first place. Some posters look at this place as somewhere to share things with their friends. Their pain aswell as their mundane pointless stuff. So when people jump into serious threads like these and start throwing stupid accusations and insults around they tend to get jumped on and rightly so IMO.

If your opinion is that people are just “gushing and moaning” that’s your right but some people invest more of themselves to this board than you probably would. It is best just to stay away from these kind of threads if that’s the way you feel.

Guess I hit a nerve, but that’s how I feel.
If you feel different, that’s probably because people do tend to be different. One man’s meat is another man’s poison. One man’s sturm und drang is another man’s melodrama. You can’t change me to be like you. I refuse.

This is the most childish of all taunts:

"you probably would. It is best just to stay away from these kind of threads if that’s the way you feel. "

I don’t see you avoiding anything. You seem to be everywhere, emoting like a country ham.

I’ll go where I want and believe whom I want. And feel emotions are real when they seem real. And the more you try to sell people the condolence angle, the more of an angle it seems. Just an excuse to bash people. We can bash people if we cover it in the name of God’s Will or Condolence Thread. Well, not everyone buys that. The self-appointed troll vigilantes here are out of control and deserve a spanking. Too bad their mums aren’t here to do it.

Would you act as much like a jackass at a funeral or any other somber gathering of people? The board provides ample opportunities for you to express your opinions. There is no reason to insult people in the middle of a thread where people are expressing condolences. It’s simply in incredibly poor taste.

You hit a nerve? And who the fuck is trying to change you and that wasn’t meant as a taunt you fucking idiot. You really need to work on your comprehension skills. You’re very touchy and defensive for somebody who obviously holds their maturity in such high regard :rolleyes:

You said yourself you don’t look at everything. I just pointed you to threads that were not hijacked. Remember you said all threads were hijacked.

I was trying to stop this argument but it seems that’s not the way it’s going to go. Fair enough off you go.
