G'day, mates
Welcome a bloke to your fancy board, will ya?
[cheers]
Mate! Do you post at FB?
shareIndeed, mate.
shareOut of curiosity, why did you come here?
shareNow there's a peculiar question, mate. What makes you ask? More than simple curiosity there, I wager.
shareJust a simple question, buddy. What would you think it's peculiar?
shareA bizarre one, at that. Why, I can almost sense the seething vitriol spewing forth through my screen. It's making my skin crawl. I may even go so far as to call your query "somewhat unpleasant," mate.
Why did I come here? The more pertinent question is why didn't I come sooner!
Strange response to a simple, direct question.
shareCurb the hostility, mate. She'll be right!
shareI'm not into trolling, mate.
shareWe can agree “why did you come here” in a welcome thread otherwise brimming with joviality is not exactly friendly. I apologise if my geniality got your knickers in a twist, mate. I gather your passive-aggressive behaviour here is the result of PTSD after having been mercilessly trolled in the past, given your last reply.
Let your heart not be troubled, old boy. I’m one of the good blokes.
Cheers,
Only if you, for some odd reason, interpret a simple question about why you came here, after just saying you were on another board, as unfriendly.
Trolling is boring, but if you're into it, hey, whatever blows your hair back.
> "for some odd reason"
> conveniently ignores the near palpable degree of hostility in first two replies
Look mate, I can tell by how on edge you appear to be as 'trolling' is concerned you've had your fair share of serious run-ins with it previously. I'm not familiar with this board, and came here for the same reason anyone goes anywhere on the internet: to seek either entertainment or enlightenment. Movie forums can be both without the involvement of extracurricular activities such as the one that's left a clear enough mark on you it defines your every interaction, even with complete strangers.
Don't let the trolls spoil your demeanour, mate. It's unbecoming. Good luck out there!
May not get to you all individually, but cheers for the warm welcome everyone!
shareWelcome, fair dinkum 👍
