Confessions of A Convicted "TroLL"

[ChickenTeeth]

My recent postings, were never meant as a personal attack on anyone here. Yet, they have become the victims of useless, uncalled for and disrespectful attacks by people "taking cheap shots". Serving, clearly no constructive purpose whatsoever. Evidently the process of deconstructing my posts, under intense scrutiny, has exposed discrepancies and unpleasant feeling. I challenge any of you, to not find fault in your own posts, when "viewed under the Microscope". My posts, may have been more receptive if I had used the "third person" tone as opposed to the dramatic "first person" narrative. Sooner or later the integrity of this forum will breakdown. Meaningful and constructive criticisms that get people motivated to find the truth within issues is certainly within what is acceptable. This form of communication between forum members serves a purpose. So I am calling on everyone to forget about " so and so said this" and "so an so said that" and try and show some respect towards other contributors. Regardless, of whether you agree or not If you don't agree, then do it politely. Not everyone has to like me or even be liked themselves, but lets try and get along. What do you say?
(p.s. a typo turned a $90 fish into a $900 fish, I never said the pic's were my fish cept the blue frontosa and I'm sorry if I recommended a Wels)

A Troll is a very old mythological figure from Norway and Sweden.
There were two kind of Trolls.
My grandmother actually believed in them...

The sculpture is based one one of them I think.
People were afraid of them, they believed they lived underground and came
to steal newborn babies.
The sculpture is based one one of them I think.

The other kind was the forest Troll like this pictures, they were giants
Probebly related to the cyclop in Greece

When everyone gets sober it will turn out OK

I have been known to screw up, poke fun, and just be plain silly, I have no problem with you doing the same. I for one assumed a typo had been made with the wolffish price, just like me mislabelling a fish as 8' instead of 8". Oops.
As I pointed out to someone in another thread, the lounge is the place for some types of threads and if all the silly stuff or controversial stuff was removed from it the forum would be pretty empty.
I do strongly agree that politeness is important. Sometimes people seem to forget that.
It is a tempest in a teapot, soon calmed.
I found an old picture of a troll that is unfortunately way to risque for this site or I would have shared it, definitely not a creature to turn ones back on, heheh.
