When does it become pointless?

[Inferno_622]

Wait, is this a troll post...? Or as stated above, you mean reading the forums but rarely posting. In that case, you're a lurker. Don't call it trolling, that has some very different and negative connotations.

P.S. If it's the latter, then sorry about the report.

This thread is asking when Posting on a Fourm is pointless. Hes not a troll

Well he opened by stating that he was, which made me suspicious. Turns out he's probably a lurker though, in which case he should start calling himself that rather than troll.

He also followed and finished his post with a couple of questions for topic discussion. Turns out people should read the post and reply to that rather than jump on someone incorrectly using some internet terminology.

Get out!

I'm sorry, I don't want to flame anyone, but I still think this is a troll IMO.

He's not a troll, he just misused the word.

The Question is.

'When Does Posting become Pointless?'

Why would you openly admit that you troll? GTFO troll!!!!!!!!

Get out!

Okay, You two, Even If he was a troll, why the hell are you responding? You Ignore trolls, But... He is not one, I reccomend you edit your Posts or I'll have to report for flameing

Sorry edited, he really shouldn't say the word troll though, he freaked me out for a second...I'm very anti-troll, but I guess...he...isn't one...so...sorry.

It's all good, Just pay a little More attention to the OP next time.

I think when pretty much everything has been said, there's no need to post.

Off topic: a person can't say the word troll in the beginning of sentence without turning you guys in to "extreme hostility mode"? xD

Generally much past the first page, unless someone writes back to me specifically

Thank you, to the people that actually read the entire OP and understood what I was asking.
Sorry that some people didn't understand the vernacular I was using for "troll" or "trolling"... read the entire post next time, words commonly have multiple meanings. Such as a boob can refer to a part on a female body or a moron. In this instance, it could be in reference to you guys.
