Agroup of crows is called a murder

 

So is a group of trolls called a gang?

And to you I say I believe you are what you accuse others of. You seem to post to cause contraversy, pain, and reactions in people. It is possible you aren't aware. But I think you are.

• Does the person (any person) resurrect old conversations or discussions that were once controversial within the community?

Yes, I have noticed that here. So that is trolling too? I didn't realise that.

---

there has been more than 1 old thread resurrected in the last couple of days, one a political one? what you have quoted wasn't written by any poster here, so the point is? if you take the list apart piece by piece then of course everyone and everything could be called something or other.

That poster has done same to me in the past as well.

---

Yeah. I think a lot are in the same boat but just don't realise.
