    You know, I've been on the net a long time, and I've been on a lot of forums.

    Honestly, I've never seen people so quickly assume someone is a troll,

    and so quickly assume it's one of our own!!!

    AND so quickly devolve into such nonsense.

    I'm sad and ashamed. If the poster is a troll, just ignore it, a troll can't handle being ignored, and will quickly escalate to get attention. Then you'll all know for sure.



    If she is a real poster (who just happens to be different than us) and has ANY sense she won't return, lord knows I wouldn't had my welcome been such.

    By the way, nothing she has done has been troll like. She didn't post fantastic informtaion, didnt post obviously made up information. Didnt post anything mean. She just posted in gangsta dialect. Is she real? Who knows, is she a troll in the internet sense? I havent seen any evidence.(In fact her profile has changed several times to more closely adhere to the way the other profiles look).

    A month or so ago we BRIEFLY had a real troll. We quickly knew it, and we handled it with style and grace. Can we not handle this situation with some grace as well?

    PS, there's a difference between a troll and a sockpuppet, which is what is being suggested here, by some.

    PPS on another forum I frequent, a tech forum, there's a constant struggle because at least HALF the posters use this dialect, and the other half don't like it much, it's pretty common on some forum.
    regardless, this whole thread depresses me. sorry i've gotten so cranky

    You Know,
    When I first joined PT I thought this was a pretty nice place. well I guess not. You seem so nice the next minit then the next you start giving off rude comments. Shantel is new and just because she comes from a different background than you doesnt mean you can go and judge her right off the back. Give it some time people. You know, if people wouldnt havnt been *joking* around in the last thread about her language/slang, this prolly would have never had happened. jeez people Stop JUDGING!

    and if she is a troll then lets just ignore her. Ok?

    Like we said, we didn't mean to offend anybody; and certainly weren't judging her.
    This is getting really out of hand..I hope Karen deletes this as well.

    Aspen and Misty, you have read way too far into my post. I mentioned that I thought you had possibly invited her which is why there was a big grin and a LOL, that's it. I never ONCE accused you of being the troll or you as the one creating the name. I said maybe YOU INVITED her, that's it! If I thought it was you I would have said it because that is ME. If there is something on my mind you will hear it.


    Now I know that your LOL was because of the way she talked, and if not perhaps you can correct me, as I can not a post interpreter and cannot read minds.

    i could say "i think all pit bulls are mean. no offence to anyone who has one" now all of u who have one or think they arent mean are gonna be offened aren't you?
    if i said that here with all the ppl who love pets and not expect it to offend anyone...i would be pretty stupid....
    so why would mock how she talks and not expect it to offend her? it would offend me....and if someone did it to u, u would probably be offened too....
    (i dont really think all pit bulls are mean....that was just for an example)

    I see you've changed your profile.


    It says Roxy is also half retriever? Golden or Lab? I bet she looks really pretty I can't wait to see pictures of her. What kind of cat is Hazel?

    Luckies4me. I want to explain to you what I read when I read

    Just so you understand why I said what I said.

    You think I did something. Like invited this person. You want to now if this person is really real or am I making her up? Now your wondering what I've done.

    Now, I understand that is not, what you ment. I'm sorry if I offended you by my post. I just try to not upset people and being accused for delibertly upsetting people is not something I want. I've always treid to keep a good reputation with everyone on PT.

    I did not mean to make fun of her. She just reminded me of my friend and some good times. I enfact have a tendency to use some slang terms while hangging out with my friends.

    I want everyone to know I am not making fun of the way she talks, or else I would be making fun of myself and one of the best people I've ever know.

    A&M, sorry bout that. You never upset me. I just thought maybe she was a friend of yours is all. I know you were not making fun, just that you thought it was funny. Hope this clears things up.
