"This thread sucks" (paraphrased) is a troll in any forum.

you know, i know we're not supposed to go out of our way to disagree with mods in the open forums, but the above quoted is just incorrect.

I found that most people and therefore many mods, don't understand how to use the word, "troll" correctly. So, you could easily use the Bayes Theorem, to not disagree with another mode, but to state a fact.

What upsets me is that the deleted post apparently contained the best strat in the thread and now its gone.

some comments:

a) yes, the post i got banned for was slightly trollish. but it wasn't any more trollish than hundreds, if not thousands of daily posts that go unpunished on 2+2 (and i'm not only talking about BBV). had i realized FRNL is run by such a trigger happy dictator, i wouldn't have bothered to post. i wouldn't risk a 24 hour ban from 2+2 for that. but you can ban me from that forum if you want, i have no desire to contribute there anymore.

b) my posts were significantly less trollish than MT2R's posts. banning me and not him from all of 2+2 because i'm not a "regular" in your FRNL forum is stupid. i'm a regular in all the shortstacking/ratholing threads on 2+2. whether the thread happens to be in FRNL or another forum, it really shouldn't matter.

c) had you not been immediately offended by my post and paid attention to the content, you would have realized it was one of the more valuable posts in the thread. the OP contains several glaring errors and overall displays an extremely simplistic understanding of the game. i'm sure some of the regulars there would benefit from reading/studying the post, but it's far from a comprehensive guide to neutralizing a shortstacker's edge.

i also pointed out that it's a fairly good guide for the shortstackers for understanding how to play against fullstacks with a shallow understanding of shortstack strategy. i probably said it in a somewhat condescending manner. that's probably why i got banned - i hurt CMAR's feelings. but my point is valid, and anyone with an advanced understanding of shortstack play would agree.

i'm almost certain the insights in the post will be at least as useful to intelligent shortstackers as they will be to fullstackers who play bad. any intelligent fullstacker who has analyzed shortstack strategy at all will gain nothing from the post. imo the post belongs in microstakes or small stakes, not the full ring forum.


disclaimer: this is not a troll, this is my honest assessment. and i really shouldn't even be giving away this advice, as i gain nothing from it and risk getting banned again.

stinky, what did you say? and why was it "one of the more valuable posts in the thread"?

i just said that the OP sucks because it has several errors and demonstrates an overly simplistic approach to battling shortstackers. i don't remember the exact wording. there may have been a "lol" and an exclamation mark or two in there that was interpreted as a troll.
