"Why can't you, Howlin, etc. make your points without qusetioning someone else's motive? Isn't that a personal attack? Aren't personal attacks supposed to be forbidden here?"


What? Howlin etc have been calm and rational. Last night she and I started on two different sides of a point and had pleasant discussion about it.


Trolling can include newly appearing on a board simply to incite it about a topic we would be discussing rationally anyway.

It certainly feels as if that is the case here. I thought it was telling how quickly Howlin was attacked even though she is factually on much the same side. That is another common "tell."

And people who use the "troll" word often do so to start a fight. Is that your objective?

Actually, I like Howlin. I just didn't like jabs at the poster rather than the facts. And I have been really into this thread. I post rarely due to people like you.
