British Moderators · Post by **British Moderators** » 22 Jun 2004, 08:01

Okay, the British moderators have come to an agreement we need some rules to keep the forum as it is: a great place to discuss boxing.

1. Please stick to boxing
2. Please avoid name-calling
3. Please don't post under multiple usernames
4. No trolling of other sites
5 Please use the search feature before creating a new thread. Check to see if there is a previous thread on your topic.

***Please report any violation of these rules by contacting the moderators or by using the Warning feature, which you will find at the bottom right of each post.

Click on the exclamation sign icon ( ) to report the offensive post.***

That's it. Thanks all, and enjoy the forum.

Trolling is hiding under a bridge and attacking people who walk over!

No - I assume it is taking articles from other sites and posting the in their complete form?.

Trolling is posting on internet forums with the sole intention of upsetting people.

I agree with this, but I have a problem with this troll thing.

Who is it that decides whether you are a troll?

I've seen posters called trolls, simply for disagreeing with someone & arguing the point forcefully without being rude.

Trolling means Criticizing other sites!!

I thought Trolling was when someone was constantly posting shit and annoying other people?

In this instance i think it means continually posting links to other websites.

But if that's the case why are those automated sponsor posts permitted as that is what they're for.
