But see, that's trollery. Or evil. I prefer to assume trollery. If it looks like a duck, walks like a duck, sounds like a duck, and ****s ducks, it's probably a ****ing duck.

I don't assume trollery.

 

[LogGrad98]

I don't assume trollery.

I'm not assuming it either. I'm deducing it from the evidence available. It's empirical at this point.

 

[One Brow]

Grow up.

I think my response to trolls is quite mature.

But the day after day clutter of arguing with posters whose only desire is to grab negative attention is so tiresome.

I know. The trolls post inflammatory links designed to stir up emotions much more than they contribute to substantive discussion. They harangue and harass, expecting every one to engage in the manner they demand. They never give the benefit of the doubt or see that there are multiple ways to view a situation.

I know this will fall on deaf ears as you’re not open to critique or change.

I'm famously known for never changing my opinion on anything.

But just know that several other posters have reached out to me in agreement about the things I’ve DMed you about previously.

Sure, just like the CDC whistleblower is real.

So let me be clear, it’s your feeding these trolls that really diminishes this board.

I encourage to put me on ignore. In fact, I encourage all trolls to put me on ignore.

If you ignored them they’d either change and post good faith arguments or leave.

No, they wouldn't. You must be pretty ignorant of human psychology to think that. They would continue to push their toxicity, and form a little internal reinforcement circle. gandalfe has another poster on ignore, that didn't stop that poster from making a link between gandalfe "opposition" (which didn't exist) to a move, his "opposition" (which didn't exist) to condemnation of child sex trafficking, and his kid. Ignoring them just leaves them as the only people who respond to their bile. In other contexts, you have understood that one of the forces tearing this country apart is the on-line segregation of communities and sources of information. Why do you want that for JazzFanz?

It’s really obvious and selfish of you to turn every thread into a back and forth between you, Al, and Jazzy.

I respond to you as well.

Sadly, I (or those who’ve contacted me recently) don’t expect you to change (despite being respectful and DMing you in the past.

I don't expect you to change, either.

Yeah, to me, it smells more like arrogance, ignorance, and self-righteousness, walks ... . Closer to evil (in that he's sincere) than trollery on the part of Al. Others I agree are closer to trolls.

Well, you tried.

At this pt it’s been pointed out by numerous posters on this board from a wide range of ideological beliefs and he’s not going to budge on this issue. He doesn’t care what other posters think. He doesn’t care about relationships he disrupts. It’s his schtick. He gets off on the negative attention he brings on himself.

Your last two posts prove my pt. Who wants to read your line by line rebuttals? How does that help anyone? You find it “informative” but no one else does. And as I’ve done to other trolls, I’ve expressed my pt, I’ll disengage, and now block you. I’m sure you’ll scream into the void and fill this site with pages and pages more drivel but I’ll never see it.

I can see that. I disagree, but I could see it that way.

 

[Al-O-Meter]

More is communicated by implication than direct words.

You mean that more is communicated in your imagination than in anything I actually wrote. You are reading in meaning that you want to be there and are enraged by what you've conjured.

 

[Al-O-Meter]

My kid moved out of the house for college (including renting a furnished apartment from a regular landlord), even though we live across the river from SLU and it hit their pocketbook severely. They're back in the home for graduate school because they won't have time for an outside job and living on a stipend is poverty-level. Whatever required "life skill" you name, they have.

I don't doubt your kid does have life skills and I have always put your kid in a different category than either Gameface's or Galdalfe's kid. If you don't believe me, ask The Thriller. In response to one of his DMs I laid that out. I don't think he should post the contents but he would be able to confirm that I do consider your kid to be in a different situation.

As for your lame defense of Gameface's push for universal participation trophies, the difference in the two statements was the one was worthless while the other was competition.

On the issue being forced on you as parents, I can see this nerve is raw. I'm going to let it be.

 

[Gameface]

I have no idea where I ever advocated for participation trophies. That's such a used up cliché anyway.

Will you do me one favor, @AI-O-Meter ? When I leave the site this Sunday, permanently, will you have the common decency to keep my name and in reference to me, my child, out of your filthy ****ing *** dumpster of a mouth?

 

[LogGrad98]

So you did your normal thing and ignore the rest of the post. Of course you won't go back and reread what you said. That would require intellectual honesty.

 

[Al-O-Meter]

Fine. You didn't advocate specifically for trophies be awarded for participation, but instead wanted to deemphasize competition in all school sports at every level and in any event that was tied to any funds coming from the government.

Sports in schools or that are subsidized by any government funds should be focused on teaching kids lessons or encouraging them to live more active healthy lives. Sports teaches kids things about good sportsmanship, being a gracious loser or winner, teamwork, working towards a goal, challenging yourself to improve, etc.. That should be the primary point of taxpayer funded sports programs for kids.

I can post the whole thread if you want but you were upset that people wanted to deny boys cosplaying as girls from competing in the girl's division because the detractors claimed the biological advantage boys had over girls wasn't fair. Your solution was to make it so that being fair didn't matter due to sport not being competition.

Will you do me one favor, @AI-O-Meter ? When I leave the site this Sunday, permanently, will you have the common decency to keep my name and in reference to me, my child, out of your filthy ****ing *** dumpster of a mouth?

I don't know your name or your kid's name so that part isn't a problem but I can't promise that you won't ever come up. After all, you have quit JF before. Wherever you end up, I wish you only the best.

 

[Al-O-Meter]

You're asking me to defend your imagination.

 

[Gameface]

AIO and SNE have a very good memory of stuff that happened on this site more than 10 years ago when they only joined in the last couple.

I never asked for competition to be deemphasized. I said the point of sports in schools is the educational and developmental aspect of it. And When I say "of it" I mean sports which inherently includes competition.

There is a difference between maintaining the integrity of an Olympic event that could result in a world record and an globally recognized "you're currently the best in world at this thing that you do" aka a gold medal and a bunch of middle schoolers tossing up airballs in the gym for an hour a day. Competition matters. I want transgender students in public schools to be able to compete. I have said that I think it is fine if college level, quasi professional, sports does not allow transgender athletes. Thus the imaginary incentive of boys deciding to identify as girls so that they can win all the sports and steal all the scholarships from your little girl doesn't exist.

I said that if people want purity in sports then they should create private sports leagues. Just like people have suggested that if transgender students want to play sports they should have their own league, you know, the 5 of them out of 80,000 student in Utah. Those 5 kids should form their own league and leave your high value child alone.

Oh, and my name is Gameface dumbass. It says it right over there. But I wouldn't be surprised if you know my IRL name. I wouldn't be surprised if you're a former poster who I used to be friendly with, even one who has been to my house to play in a poker game.

 

[LogGrad98]

You're asking me to defend your imagination.

Nope. And that proves it. You're a troll. Plain and simple. Thanks for the unequivocal confirmation.

At last one of the trolls has me on ignore, and it's the one I predicted.

Wait, doesn't using the ignore function exclude the possibility that they are a troll? So that settles it then, they're evil.

 

[LogGrad98]

I will say that I find it quite the coincidence that of all the people of posting on Jazzfanz, the three who are taking an issue with a movie with a message against the sexualization of children are Gameface, Gandalfe, and One Brow. For the lurkers who do not get the connection, each of those three raised children in such a way that their children developed sexual dysphoria. Those three are the ones attacking this movie forwarding an anti-sexualization of children narrative. I find that to be quite the coincidence.

Here's your final troll test. A challenge for you, easily laid out. A chance for you to clarify what you mean exactly with this post. Take it out of the realm of implication and insinuation and just say what you are saying. Especially this part...

So put up, express EXACTLY what you mean by this, make it unequivocally clear to everyone, or delete your account, how about that? There, I made it easy for you to dispel our "imagination".

By the way this isn't the only post this was insinuated, just the most succinct.

So?

I wonder if they could even define sexual dysphoria? Probably not, because that's not actually a thing, at least not clinically.

Aint no decency left for evil, we've passed that stage.

LOL. What a douchebag.
