RE: Its time to call out the trolls
So you've made a bunch of sweeping insinuations.
Developed intrigue, to paint a picture with words and phrasing like 'crusade' , 'enforcers', 'rituals' and 'take a trip back through time' ...
Labelled anyone that's questioned the self voting of SG a troll..
Self voted on your own posts with multiple whale votes entrusted to you - right before the 30 day window... Bringing a $10 post to a $70+ post..

Reframed this as 'troll bait'... When in actual fact it's pretty sneaky.
Anyone that has a 'debate' is a troll now, anyone that questions your self voting is on a 'righteous crusade to save trending'.
Well done @gavvet - a very Machiavellian move. I'm impressed.
And another emerges.... Thanks This has actually been the best bait ever...
I think more than anything you've just called yourself out for taking advantage of whatever power or influence you've gained.
Not really, but you are entitled to your opinion... taking advantage would have looked a lot worse.
'Secretly' paying yourself and then getting called out for it to respond with..
...It was all planned to capture trolls..! It was bait...anyone who disagrees with me is a troll...
...Kinda feels like taking advantage.
I put up this post and look at how many rapidly appeared, in numbers... few arguing the merits of the post but attacking and deflecting, kinda makes one think I must have struck a nerve.

I see the price channel as a place where people hash out ideas and discuss them at length. There have been many serious discussions involving many perspectives, I believe you even jumped in at the tail end of one regarding reward curve linearity.
At times a critical opinion may be voiced and others will agree in price and at other times those opinions will be argued against. It isn't fair to label the entire chat.
Is anyone who has a critical opinion a troll?
People these days often use Troll to label people who disagree with them, yet they are far from the same thing.
Troll bait does not apply here. A troll wouldn't give a shit about this they'd simply say anything to get a rise. They wouldn't focus on a specific issue. That is just called disagreement and is normal.
A troll won't care about the issue, they'll just want to get a rise.

Sounds more like you're 'attacking' the price channel and labeling people who disagree with you as evidence they are trolls. Also attacking whales that flag you and calling them 'enforcers'.
I also see you 'deflecting' your questionable funding practices with this entire post.
The speed at which people commented on this post was directly related to the fact that it was posted in the price channel and you essentially labelled users of the channel as being part of a 'troll box'.
Not cool and very mean.
:(
So would you agree or disagree that if you have disgruntled feelings/highly critical opinions/wish to bash other users etc. those feelings or opinions won't get a warm welcome, a cup of coffee and a biscuit when aired in the price channel?
Not everyone in #price is a troll, but pretty much every troll is in #price...
