I have a list of “troll signs.”
Be suspicious of anyone who:
- Repeatedly misspells words, and/or constantly uses poor grammar.
- Claims to have been in prison.
- Claims to be a former or current drug addict and/or alcoholic. These are all things designed to make us look like a bunch of thugs and criminals.
- Tries to incite violence.
- Has “88” as part of their screen name. “88” is neo-Nazi code for “Heil Hitler” (H being the 8th letter of the alphabet). This generally indicates a white supremacist Stormfront troll, or a DU/Kos troll pretending to be a white supremacist.
- Talks a lot about how much they “hate” Obama, Democrats, etc. Liberal trolls wrongly believe that conservatives are all about hate, therefore, when they pretend to be us, they’ll constantly talk about hate. Because we really aren’t about hate, the trolls will stand out like turds on snow.
- Refers to FReepers as “you people” or “you guys.” This shows that the poster does not see himself as one of us.
- Uses debunked myths as part of an argument.
- Refers to every Republican, even conservatives like Fred Thompson or Sarah Palin, as a RINO. That way, they can pretend to criticize Republicans from the right while they’re really attacking them from the left.
LOL! That's good.
That’s a good list - reminds me of some other ones I’ve seen - watch the person who speaks “folksy’ and uneducated - then switches to college graduate with advanced degree... We really do need to make this a stand alone post - I’ll bet other freeper have seen things we’ve missed.
so how many Nazi trolls have you busted here in your 5 years Jill?
can you be specific
i have only seen a few in 9 years...and one was actually a black homosexual lefty sending racist freepmails to known black freepers to shame us
I do agree though about the ‘you people’ ...lib provacateurs do that a lot
