The funny thing is I can’t even access your threads because the URL is too large. Just fuck off man.
Now this looks like I’m referring to yhwx.
Kinda funny because I’ve only created three threads and they all have names of a few words or less.
EDIT:
With the notable exception of the EU being scrapped
Disagree. I think that EU being scrapped was the right decision. Imagine if the ST had to be bound to the EU. Would make it a lot worse in my opinion.
Frink, I gotta disagree with you here. Using housewives and little girls has an insult is wrong and offensive.
Condolences.
Eh… I’m not sure if I believe him.
So what do you think about the allegation that Hansi is a sock of the Wario account?
His account was created during Wario’s reign, which makes it all the more interesting.
Dat_SW_Guy? Yeah, I have a feeling that it might be Hansi, but it’s just a hunch.
Ditto.
When I report a post of his, which happens from time to time, I mention that it might be a good idea to check to see if his IP matches the Wario accounts (or at least to see if Dat is using the same VPNs as Wario). No idea if they’ve done so of course.
I don’t think we are in a position of power to do so, since we don’t have access to the site’s IP logs. I’m not even sure if Jay has access to that, so it’s a mystery.
He’s not quite as destructive as the other accounts. But I am pretty damn curious.
Me too.
Dat_SW_Guy? Yeah, I have a feeling that it might be Hansi, but it’s just a hunch.
Ditto.
2016 has been a crazy year here.
Great community you guys got here.
It’s OK, it’s just one rouge troll.
The most indicative piece of evidence in my opinion is how Hansi joined the day after Wario was banned.
Not Wario64. Wario64 was a general troll, harmless, but that spamming today was some super-calculated politically-driven disinformation shit.
It’s just supposed to be edgy. Spam stuff you’re not supposed to say, like slurs. Middle school stuff with some indication of modern SW being superior to older SW.
I don’t know Wario’s specific type of trolling as far as content. But he’s the one who gets off on making new accounts and using them at full speed before he gets banned, evading bans, etc.
Here’s some of the most infamous examples of Wario’s patented trolling:

Bored? Let llamas spell your name!
The French did that 200 years ago. I guess it runs in the family.
While I do feel the slightest bit of emotion for this person
Why? I don’t.
I just think that there might be a bit more to him than just his persona that he reveals here. Still, I think the behavior is despicable.
Not Wario64. Wario64 was a general troll, harmless, but that spamming today was some super-calculated politically-driven disinformation shit. Notice the “guilt-by-association” juxtaposition of Trump, wild racism, and anime porn. Reminiscent of Rick Wilson’s comments several months ago.
This is false-flag demonization-by-proxy of the highest order, and it will become more prevalent at Hitlery’s deranged agents provacateurs swarm the web to create non sequitur psychic associations to poison Chump’s credibility (such as it is).
That cat kinda looks like Trump.
I don’t know… This comment reeks of Wario/Hansi:
2011 > 2004 > 1997 > Dog vomit > OUT
How often does this dude flood the main page with that sort of nonsense? This is the first time I’ve seen it.
Check out General Star Wars Discussion right now, and this CLIPPED
Jesus fucking Christ man remove that link, or at least put a warning. I’m at work! That could totally fuck someone over, I didn’t know he was posting porn I just saw the crazy thread titles.
Fuck me man.
I work at a mental health charity and while I was waiting for one of my clients to turn up I thought I’d check up on the site for a bit. It was lucky nobody saw what was calculatedly offensive material. I worry about the mental health if someone who repeatedly does this sort out of thing.
Well, I worry more about my job than that pathetic fuckface Wario64 or whatever the fuck he’s called. I go to like 3 websites at work, this being one of them - I had assumed it was safe but I suppose that’s my mistake. I imagine if IT was like “Well let’s see what he’s looking at today…” and then bam, pictures of bizarre cartoon porn starts coming up on my traffic I can’t imagine they’d be happy. My explanation would be equally confusing “No you don’t understand, I wasn’t looking for bizarre cartoon porn I was just checking out a Star Wars site and some sad lonely kid posted all those pics.” It’s no one’s fault but his, I don’t know how you’d prevent such a thing… it’s the digital equivalent of someone willing to key a stranger’s car for no good reason whatsoever. It’s just tremendously annoying.
I think his mental health is pretty clear - he’s probably alone, on the pathetic side, and desperate for any sort of attention even if it’s negative. There’s nothing I can do about that. My employment health is of greater concern to me.
While I do feel the slightest bit of emotion for this person, I do agree that this is unacceptable behavior. It is conceivable that someone could have lost their job for this. I think with most trolls, the intention is clear: Mild entertainment value for not that much effort. That’s what has happened here. The entertainment was getting a rise out of people. It’s sad, but that doesn’t make it acceptable.
maybe we are just disagreeing on the definition of trolling.
God damnit man, you ruined my joke. You were supposed to click on the link and I was gonna say “haha u got trold”.
Warbler is too classy for that.
I think I’ll be abstaining from visiting the politics thread for the next several months. The lack of a significant centrist presence to balance out the left-and-right-wing rhetoric makes it an eyestrain to read through.
Warbler seems to be the main centrist voice in there, though I agree, it can be hard to find.
Sure. Trolling is kind of used as a catch all term. There’s minor trolling where someone’s just kind of being obnoxious a wink and a nudge. In my opinion, stuff like that (Frink) works here because of the small size of the community, though it does mean he’ll rub off the wrong way on new people, and a few older members. I’m sure many disagree, but they can probably see the difference between that and what Wario does.
This was mostly what I was talking about.
I agree with you that his life probably is very unfortunate. I disagree about caring whatsoever about it. People have much harder lives than him, surely, and manage to not to be totally shitty. Alternatively, he could quite likely just be a bored kid with nothing to do, especially as school as out at the moment.
I think me slightly caring in you not caring mostly comes down to a difference in our personalities.
What I find interesting about this is that this seems to only be isolated to one person, presumebably Wario64. If we can find a way to just get him out, which may be hard to do due to such things like VPNs and proxies, I think 95% of this problem would be solved. The other 5% comes from the recent ad spam, whcich should be easy to solve.
I think you’re right. It’s unfortunate, since the forum is generally able to exist peacefully and mostly self-police. It works for the most part because of the relatively low traffic. But all this is exactly what this turdgobbler is exploiting. Assuming for a moment that Wario could eventually be permanently banned (he can’t) or that he would give up (this is probably all he has going in his life. He won’t), the site would still be wide open for the next little kid who wants to throw a tantrum.
On any given forum, even low-traffic ones, a certain level of 4chan style trolling is to be expected. The fact that we don’t have more of it here is the part that I find exceptional, rather than Wario’s continued presence.
I actually do think that a little bit of trolling in a forum is OK, kind of like how having people who disagree with the government is good for the government. This type of trolling, however, has no real benifit. It just makes everybody’s day shitty.
And at the end of the day I feel kind of sorry for whoever this is. (probably Wario) I mean, maybe life hasn’t been all that great for them, and since he’s not happy with that, chooes to take it out on other unassuming people. It’s sad, but that’s no excuse for the behavior.
One post per hour is too stringent. I mean, the Politics thread would be way less lively if that were the case.
Don’t you mean “you” would be less lively if that were the case?
I’ve been trying to get my post per day count down in the last couple of days, or at least making them have more content.
