( what if your not sure?

Tricky; some are only trollish part of the time, and might post interesting stuff too. You have to develop your troll-radar. For example, does the potential-troll praise certain posters to the detriment of everyone else, as in "you're about the only funny person on this whole forum"?

That's trolling.

I don't think Teddy was a troll. He seemed to spend too much time genuinely writing sketches and asking for feedback to just be coming on here to cause trouble for the sake of it.

His problem was that he was a massive bellend, and this had a tendency to rub people up the wrong way.

That's trolling.

But I am the only funny person on this forum.

(I know because people like Paddy tell me all the time)

Teddy's main problem was one of misplaced anger. He genuinely thought he was a major comic writing talent, and when the industry treated his scripts with indifference and rejected him, he couldn't cope. But as he couldn't lash out at the people in the industry who'd ignored his masterpieces, the BCG became a stand-in and he lashed out at people on here instead.

That and he was a massive cock.

It's like fishing with you, Lucas. I bait my hook with knob and arse-worms, and you're soon wriggling on the bank.

It was a strange co-incidence that when he stopped posting in critque, others who had always praised his work, stopped posting at the very same time.

Don't get that statement....he did some good sketches and got feedback from different posters, myself included, at different times, I haven't noticed anyone disappearing.
