WilliamSChips's Journal: About the trolls fighting Slashdot

I have gotten sick and tired of those trolls who think they're on some holy war against "Slashdot groupthink". There is no Slashdot groupthink, except maybe that of criticizing Slashdot, as the consistent upmodding of the trolls' posts shows.

Things that antiSlash trolls do which really piss me off:

• Use the term "Slashbot": You really think you're funny, don't you? You're not. You're annoying. And frankly, it means nothing, as those you call "Slashbots" tend to be outnumbered.
• Think that your posts are modded down because of a moderator conspiracy: They aren't. They're modded down either because of: 1) a bad moderator. They occur sometimes, but that's what metamoderation is for. The mod will get pummeled in M2. Repeat after me: The mod will get pummeled in M2. 2) your post sucks. The moderator is right.
• Think of yourself as fighting a Linux establishment in /.: There is no Linux establishment in /.. There are Linux users on /.--I'm one of them--but they are in the minority .
• Spread your anti-/. bullshit on /.: It sorta makes you look stupid, for obvious reasons. Nobody is holding you at gunpoint and forcing you to use Slashdot. GO DO SOMETHING ELSE IF YOU DON'T LIKE SLASHDOT!

Rant over.
