assani ruining the SE forum

People defending Assani-

1. Actually read his arguments and responses, don't just skim and assume because he didn't swear he was right.

2. Look at his justifications for continuing to be allowed to troll:

"Lots of people responded"

That's right, he should be allowed to troll because he's good at it. Wonderful.

You internet noobs need to realize something about trolling.

Whether AF is a real troll or just a savant troll is immaterial to his skill level.

A good troll will be able to operate with a high troll index, defined objectively as:

(Troll + number of your own responses)/Total posts in thread.

Someone who posts trollish material but then has to add a lot more posts to stir up trouble really isn't a good troll, and is more likely to be a chronic masturbator.

Chump Change,
You also claimed you were a better shooter and ball handler than Michael Jordan. In addition to claiming Isiah Thomas was the best or second best player of all time.

he is also trolling by flooding the forum.

[/ QUOTE ]

I registered less than a month after you and have more than 5000 less posts. Interesting.


[ QUOTE ]
if i wanted to type 3000 words worth of gibberish every time someone called me a bad mod, i might get people to shut up because they didn't feel like reading it all. but it wouldn't make me a good mod.

[/ QUOTE ]
agreed. You have to actually read the points and forum your opinions from that. A lot of words doesn't make someone right.


[ QUOTE ]
if assani is such a great poster and has such great arguments, there is no reason why he can't respond in a few sentences

[/ QUOTE ]
This line of thought is just as silly as the line of thought that your critisized above. Length of post has no bearing on whether one is right or wrong. This is just a foolish comment on your part.


[ QUOTE ]
as to why he cherry picks statistics

[/ QUOTE ]
This is usually how arguments work...Two people disagree, they both posts stats that enforce their points, they both look at the other people's points, and then they sometimes change their opinions.

I do not think I'm guilty of this anymore than any other poster. And I can tell you with 100% confidence and honesty that I never intentionally try to use stats to win an argument when I realize that I'm ignoring other stats.

If anything, I think I've shown an extreme willingness to change my opinion when its been shown that I'm wrong.


[ QUOTE ]
or why he does things that are clearly designed to be obtuse and confusing for no apparent reason.


[/ QUOTE ]
I will admit that I can be confusing at times. No argument here.


[ QUOTE ]
but he's not a good poster so he can't do that.

[/ QUOTE ]
So because I'm confusing at times, that makes me a bad poster? Dude, take a look at my posts. Out of my 11K posts, I'd say that less than 400 of them had to do with onslaughts, the long MTT hand thread, this countdown, etc.

Please go look at my posting history. You'll see that I contribute a ton to these forums.


[ QUOTE ]
he can't understand why he's not allowed to post crap like an onslaught in OOT

[/ QUOTE ]
Agreed. I still don't understand it for reasons that I've gone over here time and time again. Is OOT not the forum for OTHER topics which don't fit in with the theme of any other forum? Do SOME people not enjoy them? Is it not true that they are not offensive or insulting to anyone? If you're honest with yourself, you would have answered "yes" to each of these 3 questions.


[ QUOTE ]
or why some people think he's a moron.

[/ QUOTE ]
I don't understand this. I'm certainly not the smartest person in the world, but I scored 1290 on the SAT with absolutely no preparation whatsoever, got over a 3.0 in college with serious minimal effort, majored in philosophy and minored in math, and I have played poker for a living for 3+ years. Like I said, I'm not the smartest guy in the world. But I really fail to see how a "moron" could accomplish all of that.


[ QUOTE ]
he's either being willfully trollish

[/ QUOTE ]
As I've already said, its the people making a big deal out of these things that are actually being the trolls. If you would just leave the onslaught threads alone to the people who want to participate then they would've been no big deal at all.

[ QUOTE ]
or he actually is a [censored] moron.


[/ QUOTE ]
See my thoughts on this above.

also assani has repeatedly (as he did in this thread) cut and pasted articles or other random crap into the forums, sometimes trying to pass it off as his own. he has even been banned for this, and it's pretty hard to get matt to ban you in SE if you aren't calling someone a [censored] [censored]

[/ QUOTE ]
Seriously what are you talking about here???

Assani,
There is a difference between spawning debate and trolling to cause debate. If I were to start a bunch of threads in OOT
Jessica Alba is ugly.
Steak is disgusting how can any one eat it.
etc. I would def get temp banned.

BTW I'm so confused as to whether or not he is intentionally trolling or not because it requires such dedication to troll like this. istewart or KKF are really easy trolls to do. "I hate black people". "I'm going to make up a ridiculous, but funny story" But this is so different.
BTW since nobody mentioned another Assani posting habit I will illustrate one.

Why are we still talking about the Onslaught threads? They were made over a year ago, and he was already harshly criticized for them and agreed to stop.

[/ QUOTE ]
Just going to show the general body of Assani's work.
