"Is this a new phenomenon? There seem to be a new constituency of members who’s sole purpose is to spend all day on the forums belittling others and generally shitposting and behaving like assholes. Name and shame below " They are an unfortunate, although a minority, element of the Forum. This isn’t a recent thing by any means. However, I think naming and shaming would be contrary to Fabguys' Terms and Conditions that we all agree to when we join the site. The best approach is to ignore trolls. They have a strange hunger for a response, and by not engaging you stop them in their tracks. If you receive a particularly nasty or upsetting post, reporting it directly to the admin team is by far the best course of action. Hope this helps. | |||

Name and shame below " Naming and shaming could get you banned. Best to ignore them but, if you think they are really vile or disruptive, then report them. | |||

"Is this a new phenomenon? " Trolls have existed since the birth of the internet. If they are not breaking site rules there's 2 things you can do. 1) ignore them 2) waste your time counteracting their stupidly with logic | |||

".... challenging those whose worldview reeks of the dastardly/hurty/hypocritical. " That's a rather subjective judgement, isn't it? Is a dastardly, hurty hypocrite such as myself permitted to call out a smug, sanctimonious, judgemental worldview? I'm guessing not.  | |||

"Just ignore them completely." Indeed, it's the best remedy, I find, they oft protesteth too much, hoping to cover their tracks! 😆 | |||

"There is a world of difference between deliberately looking for it and challenging those whose worldview reeks of the dastardly/hurty/hypocritical. " How ironic. You purport to be the latter yet you persistently goad people from thread to thread, bringing up irrelevant subjects for your own sport. I've noticed you do it today on two or three separate threads, in fact you've done it on this one as well. Rugged Northerner made a post about favourite holiday destinations and you've already tried to wreck it with unnecessary digs relating to Newcastle. You've also done it with the unpopular opinions discussion - obsessive narcissism. | |||

"You need to take everything that's on the internet with a pinch of salt and just ignore most of it. Trolls are everywhere, and if you struggle to overlook them and it affects you, the internet is probably not the place for you. Oh damn there I go being a bit trolly lol " Nah you wrong
