This is a well written post.

To the users who want a perfect example of what NOT to do, look at the comments made by Sobrukai. They go against everything said in the post. He ignored whatever the OP had to say just to come here and promote how much of a troll I am.

Whenever you encounter a troll, simply ignore them. Don't go around promoting them... that's a very foolish thing to do.

Important Note: While I'm commenting on this, I still believe that OTF should be removed.

Untrue, I did congratulate the OP for their commendable comments. Try reading before you speak, fool.

I did not beg, anyone can look at the debate themselves and clearly see that my points had much more support than yours considering I was tying everything I said back into the Oxford definition of luck while you desperately scrambled to come up with garbage to keep on going. I find it strange that you would lie when all of the debate is right there for everyone to see, you are not hiding anything...

What does Oxford have to do with anything? And I have read the debate myself. As much as I disagree with veryverystern’s views, I found his points more impressive then urs

Sobrukai: “don’t debate with VVS, he’s a troll”.

THESE WERE THE FINAL WORDS SAID IN THE DEBATE. I DON'T SEE A REASON YOU COME HERE JUST TO PROMOTE HOW MUCH OF A TROLL I AM

Calm down my friend, it's nothing serious. Those were the final words of the debate, I was expressing my satisfaction for outlasting you.

P.S. You are a troll happy.png

What can I say, I'm a hypocrite. Deal with it.

I’m just saying that you’re contradicting yourself and ruining this thread for chip by continuing to argue in circles with this guy.

Maybe, chip can block me if he disapproves of this.

He ain’t a troll. Just cuz he don’t share your view on something doesn’t mean that he is trolling. The world doesn’t revolve around you, deal with it

I think I’ll take VVS’s side here. While he points are incredibly stupid and he may be extremely ignorant, he’s not a troll because you disagree with him. You should stop talking to him, it’s not that hard.

Have you seen this man? Bro's whole mission is to rage-bait as hard a possible then proceed to cherry-pick the people he responds to. I've agreed with him at times, like I agree that forums distract from chess, but I still recognize him as a troll.

What do you call a person who will contradict himself and then use "being a hypocrite" as an excuse to be inconsistent? I don't think anyone should debate with you, because you're a troll.

Wut?
That don’t make any sense. He isn’t rage baiting people, and he certainly ain’t a troll. Shadowtanuki for instance make a thread similar to this, I still disagree with them, but I ain’t going around calling them a troll

In the manner of @playerafar, I'm quoting that one for posterity.

Please, in an actual debate I would avoid contradiction at all costs. This is online, I can be as inconsistent as I want, though I don't think I am very inconsistent, but that's for you to judge. If you think I am a troll then you are welcome to think so, you are not alone.
