  • I wish I had picked User 1 as my investor username

  • Jeez = James
    TS above = Tommy

    James != Tommy

    Not sure who james is, don't think it was me and why he was confused with I

    Never really found a good definition of 'trolling' that couldn't be equally applicable to 'dialectics'.

    http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=trolling

    Also have problems with volition being considered in the measurement of a crime - not believing in free will.

    If I trolled I trolled/ intended or not.
    I'm not sure if I did?
    and if I did
    I'm not sure it was a bad thing.

  • I thought you're banned from the forum?

  • All bans were lifted on the move to Microcosm.

    I think only jeez has been banned since then?

  • If I trolled I trolled/ intended or not.
    I'm not sure if I did?
    and if I did
    I'm not sure it was a bad thing.

    So poetic and yet, so lacking in self-awareness.

  • Also... citing urbandictionary as the definition of anything?!

  • true ^
    Although I was citing a lack of satisfactory definition
    and don't think 'trolling' as entered oxford dictionary yet.

    Some interesting reading on wikipedia..

  • Troll, prick, sociopath... The specific word doesn't matter, we know what you are.

  • Hi @salmonchild don't think we've met.
    Infact don't recall interacting with you on a forum thread.

    Other than this time when your frustrations lead to a mistaken abusive outburst at another forum member.

    I wondered if you might be one yourself.

    Troll, prick, sociopath

  • And you can leave this part of the site too.

  • Does this thread not see much action because it's on page 2 of the sub-forums?

    @Velocio I've got to say I only found page 2 of lfgss last night. And I've used it a fair bit.

    Wouldn't it be better to just be able to scroll down to see the 'page 2' sub-forums?

    I can't believe I'm the only one who missed this.

    Are you keeping an eye on engagement stats for page 1 v. page 2? If not, it might be an idea.

  • We are measuring it, but it's a strange beast.

    The forums are sorted by popularity... by virtue of that page 1 is always going to get massively more traffic.

    Also, people tend to navigate via search and following, meaning that if you're in "Norwich" you search for it... then it's the first result and you go directly there without touching page 2. Additionally, once you're participating the items in your following stream keep you going in there even though you never navigated via page 2.

    So even with the traffic you know is going there, after the first or second hit... people are taking other routes to the content they want.

    We will add infinite scroll features, but not to the web version. It will come in the native mobile apps.

  • Happy 5/11
