As president of WOW (Warts of the World). . I resent that comment!

Thanks goodness there are no trolls on FR!
Where were I looking for a fight?:) But to be honest there are more than few real trolls on this board. I think a person screaming ‘troll!’ at anyone disagree with him must be tracked by anti-troll system first.

True. Increasingly, more and more threads on FR could simply be replaced by an auto-ditto generator. Contrarians or independent thinkers get labeled as trolls if they don’t salute or harumpH on cue.
I have been banned from both CNN AND ABC just for stating my conservative opinion.
They aren’t looking for trolls, they are looking for anyone who speaks out against the Democrats.
The easiest way to tell what the left is really up to here is to pay attention to their accusations against the right.
Well, now...if I go & make a comment of my opinion of GW or Ukraine (among others that would expose my back)...
...you could call me “Algorithm”.
Yes, I’ve seen the TROLLS on Free Republic, too ... especially when a select group of trolls rides in to disrupt on an Apple users thread ... LOL ...
BUT ... just in general, I’ve see some others on Free Republic use the moniker of “Troll” against someone simply on the basis of either not liking the poster in the first place or disagreeing with their opinion.
ANTI-TROLLS are also a problem ... :-) ... in those instances.
I wonder if JimRob will buy this new program?
Yep, happens all the time on Free Republic ... :-) ...
I agree. Breitbart is the worst site possible. I hate that because I'm interested in what the article says but I refuse to click anymore. I always see people saying if you block this and add this you won't have problems. I've found almost every program I add to help has annoyances also.
I like your thinking. Err, I don’t like your thinking, but I think your correct if you understand what I mean.
Pro-Choice — Troll
Pro-Heterosexual — Troll
Global warming denier — Troll
Israeli supporter — Troll
And so on ....
That’s called Trolling the Trolls.
Everybody Trolls at one time or another. Just watch how many come out when you make a post calling out the Birthers on their poor planning and lack of critical thinking skills.
:-)
IMO, the left like CNN et al will NEVER hunt for and sanction its own trolls. They and the DNC, WH et al pays them to start with.
The left never goes after its own. This tells me any attempt to ‘study’ this and sort it is them, not us.
We are independent and free thinking and can usually spot troll activity very quickly.
To disagree with PC is hate speech.
Therefore the feelings of the left trump the right to free expression, and increasingly, association and action.

LOL ... I’ve still got some birther trolls (or anti-trolls, whatever they may be) chasing me around from time to time, from back around five or six years ago ... :-) ...
Yes, you are correct.
The article says, “The say their system can spot an inflammatory commenter in less than 10 posts.”
Is an inflammatory commenter someone that simply disagrees? And therefore they will post what could be considered inflammatory comments.
If you aren’t politically correct, you are an inflammatory commenter, a troll, will be banned, and the IRS will soon followup.
