BQ..why do you say a troll?
Because the troll is the one who destroys topics and too many of them result in forum quality to drop.
BTW, my post was NOT intended to deride erikido23, I posted that before I saw his post! And THAT is another issue with some forums, accidentally being taken out of context!! If I had seen his post first, I would certainly not have made that comment.
Bad timing on my part, so sincere apologies to erikido23. Was not meant to attack you but state what the problem is with a lot of forums!!
Kinda funny tbh! lol!
Haha...Talk about irony. I did think that was probably the case.
It's very tempting to spam that topic with some fun stuff, but then the OP gets offended, which isn't good for the poor OP, who, despite having NFI, bordering on being a "chess moron", doesn't deserve to have their topic hijacked and have the topic openly ridiculed without at least understanding the answer to the question.

...then okay, I can see your point. Too often though such thread-bearers come across more like this:
...and they only seem to get worse and worse as things go on.
It seems to me that maybe giving them a little guff about their cluelessly imperious attitude might at least begin to impart to them some sense of the reality of the situation. Maybe not...but I suspect that forum Rhodas will always be easily offended, and that it has less to do with any respondents' waggish attitudes than with the fact that somebody--anybody at all--dares to contradict them and their own view of the world.
Do you recall the 'real' reason you created the spam group?
