[QUOTE=SoCalyorkiLvr]Hey y'all DivaPup- What can I say? You seem to be upset with the use of the "donut phrase" which is totally anonymous and nonsensical, not meant to offend or harm anyone, but you are okay with "troll alert", "Don't feed the trolls", "Troll hunt", "Invisible users", "common denominator", "silent treatment", "pot stirrer". I have seen these phrases used in the past and they are negative and hurtful and definitely meant to offend. YT is a friendly place and we want to keep it that way. That's all.
Kim you did it again. You couldnt just let it go could you? I am not "upset" with the term donuts, I just thought it was stupid. As far as you being called a troll , troll alert , and all the other troll stuff on another forum, if you go back and read all of that I do not believe I participated in that. Why? because I thought it was stupid then too. I do think there are such people that go on forums to stir up trouble, there is a whole website about the personality of the "troll" so i guess they are real. I cannot imagine why someone would get their jollies doing that but whatever does it for you.
As far as the term sirring the pot, well, we wont even go there. but when my mother used it in conversation with my sister and I I certainly do not remember being hurt or offended. It is a common saying just pointing out what someone is doing to not let a subject be defused. Kind of like this post. |
