Any other veggies SICK of these freakin' trolls???!
Any other veggies SICK of these freakin' trolls???
Okay... so I come on here this morning and see ALL these lovely posts like "meat is tasty murder" and "what's the best way to kill an animal slowly", etc. I'm getting really sick of it.
SOOOO.... I was thinking. How 'bout if all of us actual vegetarians and vegans just STOP RESPONDING to these morons? Half the time these harrassing, obnoxious and downright sickening posts get more responses than the serious "veggie to veggie" questions do! Clearly it just gets these morons off, getting all us veggies riled up.
So flag 'em if you want to... but DONT respond to 'em. Once they get a few violation notices from yahoo AND don't get the pleasure of pissing us all off... maybe they'll go find something better to do with themselves.
Oh... and just so my question is a question... how 'bout this: WHAT is the best way to get the morons off our board? Anybody have any other ideas???
Answers:
I agree! I am not an actual vegetarian or vegan yet, key word yet. I come here to get ideas because I am seriously considering it. It's a less cruel and more healthy lifestyle. What the "trolls" are doing is not just annoying but disrespectful. I don't come to this forum to read their idiotic posts I come here to be better informed.
Flag 'em
Agreed, except on one point.
The Yahoo police are anything but fair. They seem to tolerate certain people more than others, sometimes with very poor judgement. Yahoo has sent me violation notices for "offences" that I never committed.
I don't know how clear the Yahoo police are with your folks concerns either.
I got flagged for not asking a question, just wishing everyone "Happy Holidays" While I agree this isn't an actual question, it seemed un-holiday-like to penalize me, didn't it?
Ah well - hope things are better for you.
fyi - I don't hang out in this forum - I just look at the main home page where all the new posts show up . . . that may be where the "trolls" come from . . .
I agree, I just flag them and ignore them! Never post a response, it is just not worth it.
Fair enough. In response and out of respect to my fellow veggies (or vegans) I will no longer reply to 'the trolls' 'veggie baiting' comments or pseudo-questions. Let's ignore them first.
I always flag them, but anyone who has been "fighting the trolls" for a wile here knows this does no good. I admit I do respond to some of these posts, mostly because it's entertaining to do so sometimes.
We have a group for the serious Vegetarians and Vegans of yahoo! Answers if you want to check it out: www.groups.yahoo.com/groups/ve...
The best way is to factory farm them.Send them to the Yahoo! slaughterhouse.
Oh I'm sick of it too. Now heres what I think about it, if they actually explained why they think vegans are "painsies" I guess I'd be slightly ok with it, but people coming on here and typing like this "OmG lIkE tHeM vEgAnS..." doesn't really show how mature they are. I'm with all my veggie (or vegan) brothers and sisters! Don't worry I'll ignore them now :)
just don't answere them at all and ignore itl
UR RIGHT!!!!!!!! I agree with everything u wrote!
I CAN'T BELIEVE THEM, WHY DOES IT BOTHER YOU ASSES THAT WE DON'T EAT MEAT? ARE YOU GONNA DIE IF WE DON'T? WILL IT KILL YOU? I SHOULD THINK YOU WOULD BE HAPPY TO KNOW THERE IS MORE MEAT FOR YOU!!! WE ARE NOT FORCING YOU TO BE A VEGETARIAN/VEGAN! (or are we making you nervous?maybe even a little curious?ummm) MEAT EATERS OPINIONS ARE OF NO CONSEQUENCE TO ME!!!!
BUT I NEVER STOP BEING AMAZED AT HOW OTHERS ARE "BUGGED" BY SOMETHING THAT DOES'NT CONCERN THEM! THE ONLY TIME I BOTHER THEM IS WHEN THEY BOTHER ME AND MINE!!!!!!!
TO DAVID DICKERMAN: I HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM,MOST PPL JUST KNOW ME TO BE "MEAN" BUT I ONLY GET THAT WAY AFTER I GET ANGRY AND "THREATINING"YES,THREATS! IN MY E-MAILS!!! AND ON MESSENGER,IF THEY START IT I WILL FINISH IT!
SOME PPL FEEL THEY CAN SAY WHATEVER THEY WANT TO YOU AND IF YOU RESPOND THEY PUT YOU IN VIOLATION.
yes! they just want a reaction from us, so let's not give it to them, and on top of that report them so they won't bother us anymore. this section is for vegetarians and vegans to ask each other questions and for non-veggies to learn how to become one or just to get our opinions. if you don't like vegetarians/vegans, don't go to this section! =)
