MP is Mostly Trolls!

Man that is a weird thread to use as an example because that thread has like a bunch of opinions on point to where a possible 15c in America could be with a lot of insight and examples. Most of the posts seem pretty genuine and thoughtful.   Then in your first comment in that thread you said D Woods is on his way out. Its okay that that is your world view but it seems most people thought it to be a bit off. 

Making a post on an online fourm about Trolls is pretty meta though. 

No it's not.

You are the one who asked for it....

Marc I am still waiting for the breakdown of the harm I have caused....otherwise I will just lump you in with the trolls who don't think they are trolls.

This thread is proof of concept. So far little discussion, heavy heavy emphasis/ borderline obsession with me rather than using talking points. Marc/Montoya you havent even stated whether you agree with the topic at hand? So far many users agree we are all trolls, so why focus on me so much?

Your obsession with other people being obsessed with you is hilarious. You have stated this many times. Get over yourself.

No one is obsessed with you. You're just an easy target.

You've go to be kidding!!! Whether you think of Trev as a target or not, these 3 pages show that the prahj is obsessed with at least hitting the mark, and your mark is Trev... sheeesh!!!

Exactly!!!

so far it seems 

Montoya/parachute/Marc haven’t voted or declared whether mountain project is all trolls or some trolls or none.

One vote that none of us are trolls.

Many votes that we are all trolls, is this settled and I should start my next intellectual conquest? Also if the prhaj wants to start sponsoring me to go on climbing trips I then post wayyyy lesss!

I see no poll braj, maybe try survey monkey

Well, first off it's Parachute not parachute. To a certain degree all the regulars on the forum troll. Only a few really take pride in it. I am not one of those. But this forum is rarely good for anything else so on occasion why not?

I vote "some".  

Regardless of what goes in this thread, PTPL and I have talked on the phone, and he is as normal as any of us.  Trevor, let's go trundling and drilling when the ark lands again.

Can we just get this praHji back to some sort of entertainment value!!!? All these stupid rulez and expectations of civil discourse has made this place a sleeper...

For some reason, most mountain project users fail to recognize themselves as trolls.  First, most mountain project users have no interest in actual discussion however they love starting flame wars. A perfect example of this is the 15c thread, I was really the only actual opinion other than JCM; most posters are too afraid to express their opinion or provide any actual insight. There are multiple threads where people are confronted with objective facts and totally ignore them.

Second, almost everyone I have met who has a dissenting view of me online seems quite mum on chatting. Online they are quite happy to strongly express their distaste yet in person they won't express their dissatisfaction. This is kinda of the definition of a troll, willing to say stuff online yet afraid to in person. If anyone does wanna flame on me please give me a call (360477eighteight59) because flaming in this thread will get taken down. You are a troll if you can only say stuff online. Then contrast that with everyone I meet in person who agrees with me, they tell me I havent posted enough! 

Third, rather than encourage discussion anytime someone has a chance to flex/inflate their own ego they take it rather than provide detailed explanation. Examples of this are pretty pervasive. New climbers say something like, "why is the bolt there?" The typical mountain project user, "THE FA IS ALWAYS RIGHT." Mountain project should actually say something like, " There is a large ledge and falling there the bolt would pull you away from it."

Forth, if you are not a troll chill out. Your FA, Redpoint, Onsight, rack, experience, the "world class" destinations you have been to are totally meaningless. 

Fifth, I don't care if MP is mostly trolls. I care if people try to say they are not a troll when they clearly are. Discuss!

I vote mostly trolls, but most of them are unintentional trolls.

Headed for page four and nary a puppy nor chode in sight.

Disappointed boyz, bitterly disappointed....

You gotta pay the troll toll if you wanna get in that boy's hole!

(All right not bad, good rhythm, love the enthusiasm. I feel like you're saying "boy's hole", and it's clearly "soul".)

Seems that some climbers also troll the Himalayan mountains…

I can honestly never tell if Trevor is the best troll since the OG Tradiban or just that compassionately ignorant. Either way, I am thankful for the entertainment he provides. 

the only troll i know is bearbreeder
