Destination Skillqueue might be a candidate for a 10/10 Troll. A new and different approach, a method that technically isn´t trolling and therefore can´t really be stopped, no less than 3 threads where people gather that has probably been trolled and no one is really sure whether Destination Skillqueue is really trolling us all or not...
And the first imitators coming up as well...

He might be a really rare case of true 10/10 trolling...
What do you think, is he or is he not?

I got lost in thought... it was unfamiliar territory.

...and so you thought it would be smart to make a fourth?

I'd like to apologize for the poor quality of the post above and sincerely hope you didn't waste your time reading it. Yes, I do feel bad about it.

I'm going to start reporting everyone in the world for trolling me. All of you weren't really trolling but I feel like everyone was trolling me, cause there are heaps of forum threads that other people trolled in and they can't be stopped. They might as well have being directed at me, since I read forums. The people in the world who don't read forums and/or haven't posted in a forum are still trolls because they are just using a new and different approach to trolling and no one is really sure whether it is trolling or not.

The perfect troll is indistinguishable from any other kind of post. So, 9/10 at most since you caught it.

By the way, since we're already talking, do you want to buy a rifter? I've got the cheapest rifters in Metropolis. If you can find a cheaper rifter, buy it!

So, you're saying that you are angered/annoyed/trolled by the random liking? I don't see how liking posts can be considered trolling. Maybe he's just on some happy meds and genuinely likes everything at the time. Cool

Nope, not angry, however, others got irritated and quite a few confusedLol
But thats exactly the reason why he might be the famous 10/10 Troll. No one -me included- knows if he is trolling or if the likes are genuine and he is not trolling.
So if the 10/10 trolling requires to be indistinguishable from serious posts/likes he does apply.Shocked

Most likely this.
You brought his trollscore down by registering the fact that he was trollin' Blink.

I don't understand why a grab at attention and to "be special" when all other tactics have failed, is such a mystery to all of you.



I really don't Ugh



Here I was thinking EVE had higher brain requirements then wow. Ugh Oh well.

I cant compete with Destination Skillque, but I would like to submit my humble attempt for consideration for a 2nd or 3rd place Troll award.

I just disabled the notifications on people who like my posts. I petitioned CCP to see if they can include a feature where individual posters can be blocked from liking.

I simply ignore those likes.

It's equivalent to getting an automatic like for each post you make, which while slightly annoying isn't really an issue if most everyone is in the same boat.

I would be very surprised if it continues for any serious amount of time.

Change coding to be only able to 'Like' once every 30 Seconds.
