Louisa Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 I think the time has come for us to have a grown up adult discussion about the true meaning of this word. As I am banned from the general issues section and cannot respond publicly to some of the pretty nasty sneering aimed at me on a certain other thread, I would like to raise it here. In defence of my PM to this 'robbin' person, I was trying to make the point that sneering DOES work both ways. You can't accuse me of being obnoxious on the one hand (based on previous posts) when the very comment I am refering to made by you is indeed obnoxious. Lots of pot kettle black stuff going on here today. A lot of my humour is lost in translation, but the lack of humour in some posters whilst sneering is obvious for all to see most of the time (I do hope you are taking note admin). I'm sick to the back teeth of people misunderstanding me even after I've explained myself, then winding me up knowing full well I can't respond on the thread in question. It's sneaky underhand tactical stuff which exposes your apparent 'anti troll' rants for what they really are, TROLLING. Louisa.

DulwichFox Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 It does not seem at all fair that people here on EDF are being allowed to continue mocking and insulting some one who is no longer in a position to defend themselves. It's not right. and people doing so know that. DulwichFox Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/57259-sneering/#findComment-841209 Share on other sites More sharing options...

robbin Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 If it helps, I have resolved no longer to rise to the bait. So you need not worry about any future replies from me.

Louisa Posted April 23, 2015 Author Share Posted April 23, 2015 More subtle sneering. Get off your high horse. If you didn't want to respond and genuinely believed in the 'anti-troll' references you so spouted on the other thread, surely you'd not respond at all? Instead we have the 'not me honest gov' approach, where you reply by saying you won't be replying. If that isn't trolling I don't know what is. Louisa.

Louisa Posted April 23, 2015 Author Share Posted April 23, 2015 The old Louisa is dead, I've promised myself and a few others to not steer back into previous conversational favourites of mine, and as yet have not done so. Then someone tries to push my buttons to get me to talk about a topic I have tried to leave behind me. So rather than rise to that, I am back with a completely different take on local issues. I refuse to be drawn on Iceland, class or parents with a buggy. From now on, I want to be taken seriously, any drinks events on the horizon? I refuse to be trolled back into previous topics. Louisa.

Louisa Posted April 23, 2015 Author Share Posted April 23, 2015 KK both. The only sneering that's gone on today and since I've been banished, has been from certain other posters. You know, the ones who bang on about evil trolls whilst doing it themselves? Louisa.

MrBen Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 I for one don't mind having you around Louisa - even if those old topics you refer to were getting done to death by you and boring many. But if you're going to flounce then for god's sake do it properly....Coming back after just 2 days doesn't really count!

I tried to delete my profile and realised it wasn't possible, then I thought oh bugger it the forum is getting more and more dull as many faces disappear, may as well go down with the sinking ship.

If she'd done a proper 'flounce' and not returned at all?You say you don't mind having her around so why question a change of decision?You should be celebrating instead. One less missing person.

*Bob* Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 Lou - when you do a massive rotten fart, sometimes it takes a while for the aroma to dissipate. Try to think in terms of you having done one long, continuous, stinking guff - continually - for several years. You can't wave your hand a bit and away it goes. Can't be done. Its going to take some window opening and duvet wafting; possibly even a scented candle.
