So, when exactly does the rulebook start being applied consistently across the board? I mean, when does every single ad hominem attack, troll, off-topic rant, or spammy post actually get treated with the same level of discipline?
It should be just like how we handle people posting total nonsense or dropping the same link to the same video ten times in a row.
I mean, if you look at the rules, there’s even stuff about "playing dumb." So, what’s the plan for handling that kind of thing?

Look, based on these guidelines, you basically just checked off boxes 4, 11, 12, 13, and 15 all at once with that last post... and now you're sitting there waiting for everyone to jump on you.
It’s pretty funny how you—someone who hasn't said a word here in almost two years—are suddenly waking up from your slumber out of nowhere...
Did you happen to stumble upon some clone profile that hit a nerve?

It should be the same deal whether someone’s being an absolute moron or just dropping the same obnoxious YouTube link for the tenth time in a row.
I mean, if you look at the rules, there's even stuff about "acting stupid." So, what's the plan there? What are we supposed to do about that?

See, based on what's written here, you—just as an example—basically tripped over points 4, 11, 12, 13, and 15 all at once with this one post. And now you're sitting there waiting for people to jump on you.
It’s kind of funny how you, after basically being a ghost for nearly two years, are suddenly deciding to show up and stir the pot...
I wonder if you just stumbled onto some clone profile or something and decided to blow things up.
Don't go coming for the guy for no reason. You can pick apart his arguments all you want, but don't make it personal. 🧐

Hey, let's take a breath! Nobody here is actually attacking anyone... we're just having a conversation about what counts as trolling. Honestly, I don't see any trolling happening at all.
I know, I know—this is totally off-topic, but I figured these were the right kind of responses to throw out when things start drifting off-track.
