Kudos to PRC-UTE and Khad (and the others as well) for the humorous fierce battle waged with the trolls in these threads: http://www.revleft.com/vb/socialism-...149/index.html http://www.revleft.com/vb/zapatistas-t115393/index.html It was the first real-time troll invasion I've seen defeated.
hear hear!
Truly, a great job. A shame I only got in on the tail end of it.
The fella in the first link(fog on the tyne) seems to be a total nutjob. Claims that all 'true socialists' can see that ian paisley is working to socialism!!
We should get that whacko restricted.
I can't see why he hasn't already been!
Thanks to the above posters and PRC-UTE. I find it interesting that the troll says "for God and Ulster." If the whole of Ulster province voted in a referendum surely it would vote for Irish unity would it not?
I'm not sure to be honest. It would be a very close call. As we know, we can't rely on elections to bring about real change. Especially in Northern Ireland, where over the years there has been clear bias in the election process to keep nationalists from doing well.
Take a look: http://www.revleft.com/vb/sourdoughn....html?t=115562 "I can't see why any of his other views constitute trolling or deserve a banning"
i cant see that page comrade? is it only for CC members? I have pm'd a mod about that thread being closed down and nothing has come of it. It seems the mods aren't too bothered about these trolls spitting slurs at us.
Yeah, damn, CC only. Our great leader will see it soon enough, though.
Tá fáilte romhaibh (you are all welcome) Those threads were good for a laugh. I really thought the Paisleyite one was someone taking the piss, pretending to be a Paisleyite for the lulz. I was surprised it really was a loyalist. The fella in the first link(fog on the tyne) seems to be a total nutjob. Claims that all 'true socialists' can see that ian paisley is working to socialism!! He is a nut. I even tried talking to him and he exploded, started slabbering like an eejit. It was the first real-time troll invasion I've seen defeated. It did seem like an invason... indeed, it was like our own republican socialist bay of pigs! The fighting was over almost as soon as it begun wouild be too much of a coincidence for them to both show up like that and in the same thread of a fairly large forum.

You know, I did as well. "Paisley approves of this question" sounded like a cutting (and funny) remark from a leftist about fog on the tyne's thread post.
Ye had fun without me.
Ye had fun without me. lol, you woulda loved it
