Less than 5% of the people who regularly enter the prose competition are regular trolls in your threads. I can smell the bitterness from here.
Are you trying to ruin the prose competition for everyone by spamming up this thread? If I was a newcomer to RHP and saw all of this nonsense I would be more than hesitant to enter.
This is not a two-way stree s for being so goddamn selfish, Bobby. You're becoming more of a pariah with each passing day.

Page 3, post 2 my brief thanks. Next came Tim's post calling me an 'idiot'. Page 3, post 5 my copy and paste of an excerpt from RHP Posting Guidelines. Subsequently Tim's 'idiot' post was removed by a forum moderator on duty. Page 3, post 6 Tim's 'obtuse' remark. Page 3, post 7 my reply. Page 3, post 8 Hop's criticism in support of Tim. Page 3, post 11 my reply with 'Thanks again'. Page 3, post 15 Sunburnt's off topic 'sucker' remark to Tim. Page 4, post 1 my 'be kind' to Tim reply. Page 4, post 2 Tim's gb 'bloke' remark.

Page 4, post 13 'Goddamn selfish' paragraph from Hopscotch. Page 4, post 15 my courteous reply. Next, "The problem is, when any normal person either got the answer (as hopscotch provided) or realised he wasn't getting an answer, he'd stop posting in a thread he had no interest in contributing to. Unless he was trolling." from Starrman.

As I commented to Hop, earlier this morning, "Sole purpose of my post in Tim's thread was to ask two simple questions. Simple answer would have eliminated any digression." Reflect on the hard reality. Quite impossible to have a conversation all by yourself.

Anyway. Enough with the trolling.
It's clear you've no interest in participating.
Meaningless word modification, rampant subjectivity and unbridled feelings are so
inconsequential. Facts and principles matter. As to participation, I haven't decided.

The post that was quoted here has been removedThere you go again, Tim, asking 'do you still beat your wife' imbedded false premise questions for the lulz. A simple,
'Hope you compete' would have been quite enough to place your earnest thread back on track. You chose otherwise.

At some point, children learn that the world does not revolve around them. I am truly sorry that for whatever reason, your parents didn't impart that message to you. I know it's more difficult to internalize as an adult when you've been living your whole life thinking everyone's waiting to hear from you, but please make the effort.

Originally posted by Grampy BobbyWhat a load of rubbish. Don't pretend for one instance that you're the innocent guy just replying to posts as people interact with him. You're an attention seeking troll, you could have had the foresight to end your reply conveyor belt whenever you wanted by simply stating that you haven't decided whether you're going to take part or not, as an addendum to any of the posts you've made.
