trolling and baiting

[JE Corbett]

In some of my earliest forays into online discussion groups, I discovered the
practice of baiting, a favorite tactic of the troll. The subject of the discussion
group was college football and I learned there were contributors to the forum
who get their jollies out of making obviously false statements and seeing how
long they could get someone to continue to dispute their false claim. It's
pretty pathetic when you think about it. Obviously, such people need to get a
life. We have seen this tactic used quite a lot, mostly by one contributor who
doesn't need to be named. We all know who it is.

Here we see Corbutt doing what he claimed he'd no longer do - respond
to my post. He's clearly responding to my most recent post:

https://groups.google.com/g/alt.conspiracy.jfk/c/_K7HML2Ge1g/m/Zqte6RpyAAAJ

But he has no specific answers to it, so he goes on a logical fallacy
rant.

Corbutt *KNOWS* he cannot demonstrate that any of the facts & evidence
I post are "false claims" - which is why he stopped responding to me.

It was a losing proposition for him.

And the facts tell the tale...

Indeed. It shows the troll in action...

And then there's masturbating, which you do every time Ben and I post something.
When we don't post, all you do is cry for us because you don't want to end another day with blue balls.
When we post, you stick that hand in your pants and play with your magic bullet and two empty shells.
Bend over and tell us if that hole is an entrance wound or an exit wound.
ROFLMAO

Giltardo is trying to be funny. He's succeeding but not in the way he intended.

Logical fallacy deleted.

Logical fallacy deleted. Corbutt couldn't answer the question. (The
answer, of course, is "entrance."
