236 Trolls Identified on FreeRepublic?
FreeRepublic ^ | October 10, 2004 | Members

The poll titled "Last chance poll: Who gets your vote?" shows that 236 FR members have cast 2,393 votes for John F. Kerry. Since FR apparently has the ability to determine which members have voted for John Kerry, it would seem like FR administrators now have the ability to determine which members are trolls.

There are a few freepers who while conservative, don't really live in the real world. Other than that I suppose most are trolls.

I'd like to see the stats on how long they lasted after voting in the poll.

They sign on, vote, say somthing stupid, get identified as a troll, and then they are zotted.

in fairness, maybe they arent trolls

Trolls, Orcs, Hobgoblins, Wargs ...

It's all the same to me and they all share the same fate.

FreeRepublic's version of the Patriot Act...place a spying eye on 236 Freepers.

National Security you know.

I like it!

I noticed that the Kerry votes suddenly began to creep up after a lengthy time when the vote had seemed to stabilize at roughly 98 percent Bush. Kerry had actually been out-polled by other third-party candidates. I believe the Kerry increase occurred about the time troll posts became more noticeable.

I think you are confused. 236 members did not cast 2,397 votes for John Kerry. They cast 236 votes for him, and 2,161 non-members (which could admittedly include some members not logged in) cast the rest.

Secondly, supporting Kerry does not make one a troll; just a Communist.

Disinformation.

I often vote Nader in on line polls, just to encourage the stupid bastards.

You're right. Supporting Kerry makes you a moron, not a troll.

Sounds like something a TROLL would say. ;)

Could it be that you're a troll, Dan? After all, you've only been here a week or so.

So 236 people have collectively voted 2,393 times.

It seems that the dems/trolls just live to stuff the ballot box, huh?

Also, I haven't seen the original thread but in your summation no where does it say that FR admins can determine who voted for sKerry. All you say is that FR has said that x number of people voted for sKerry.

What mathematical equations do you use to come to the conclusion that FR can tell exactly who voted for whom?

Hey there Rb. How are you?

Nice tag line, btw.

I don't think being a Kerry supporter disqualifies a person from posting on FR.

Just be civil and don't lie. For example, if someone says "I've been a Republican for 20 years, but now I'm voting for Kerry, blah, blah, blah..." then we know we have a lying troll.

Can someone explain me what topic I can't post so that it won't be pulled away by 'Sidebar Moderator'?
