Huge Troll Squattin' on the Verizon Forum

Hey Rich, you want to consider blocking Kingfrog from the VZW forum? If you read his posts, they're all nuthin' but trolling, ad nauseum.

Kingfrog is not trolling, but rather is disagreeing with the Verizon propaganda. Classic example I've been told in person and via email by Verizon employee's: Verizon won't release a phone until it passes Verizon's rigorous testing.

B.S.

Everyone including Verizon employee's know Verizon has the worst phone selection of all the major carriers. And the two NEW phones I received from Verizon that went through all this supposed rigorous testing were defective. So I went to the competition and lo and behold I found phones that work. It's why I left Verizon.

This is just one of many examples. I really liked my Verizon service, but their phone selection if horrible. Kingfrog brings some interest to the Verizon forum which would otherwise...

Naw, the guy was trollin like there was no tomorrow. And he was flaming quite a few people in the process too. What he was doing wasnt 'debate' or discussion of any usuable kind. You know its bad when even PhoenixAshes calls him an idiot, and they're both Cingular zealots. 🤣

Speaking o which, why does the Cingular lunatic fringe always camp out on the Verizon forum picking fights anyway? Insecure? Guess so.

Maybe it's time that VZW forum users start going over to the Cingular forum where they bash their customers and bitch about how the company isn't paying them right or crying about unions and talking about how the company is forcing ATT customers to migrate to plans that cost more. This guy put VZWFan and you attack him?? You work for the number one company now (subscriber wise) but they still don't have the nations most reliable network and VZW will add more subscribers in the first quarter of 2005 and when the news is released you will be getting slammed in the Cingular Forum 😈

You're coming to the aid of the wrong damsel in distress- Kingfrog isn't a cingular employee. He's either self-employed or unemployed, depending on how you take it.

Oh and as far as being a "zealot", I've worked for everyone... I just happen to work for number one now...
Being called a "zealot" by someone so smitten with their company that they name themselves AFTER the company is extremely ironic...

Ok.
Go for it.
Show me a link of when I just randomly started ranting and raving "verizon baaaaad".
Go ahead.

I would say he could stay if he had a clue about what he is talking about but he is only flame baiting and can't back anything he says up. If he loves Cingular so much why is he always trolling on the Verizon page but never contributing to the Cingular forum?? GEt RId of HIm and PHoenixAshes I say!!!

Awwww....Rich deleted it again. 😢

Oh well.

Just ignore him. Not look at the posts. Don't respond to the posts. AND MOST OF ALL END THIS THREAD RIGHT NOW!

All this bickering by the 'normal' users of the forum just validates his actions.

Yep, you're right.

And y'know, since Kingfrog's just here to troll to the Verizon forum (he pretty much admits it), the cruelest thing you could do to him would be to bar him from the VZW forum only. Its a fair punishment too, since if he actually had something to contribute, he could still do it on all the other forums.

It'd be funny if Rich ever did that- you can just picture KF trying to login and screaming "NOOOOOOOOO! I can't TROLL anymore! WAAAAAAAH!!!"

Maybe he just likes to hear all of the hypocritical whiners complain and cry that they don't like to read someone Else's opinion.

"Rich,[sniffle], can you ban this guy?[sniffle]
He says things that I don't agree with and hurts my feelings[sniffle]..."

When I was going to elementary school, my teacher would make all of the whiney tattle-tales wear a sign on them for a day that told the rest of the school how much of a big baby they were...

Maybe if Rich also posted how many times people "report to the moderator" we could all return to being responsible adults instead of bratty ...

Well, THAT was certainly a heapin' helpin' of bile, wasn't it, Phoenix? 🙄

You may not personally like the moderation feature, but it IS useful, as some ppl on the 'net have the self-control of toddlers, and getting their sorry ass banned or modded is about the only thing that keeps a site from devolving into a profanity & flamefest-laden three-ring circus. Trust me, I've been to sites where the modding was non-existent, and its amazing how puke ugly and vulgar ppl got. 😳

I do understand that you're a little sympathetic to Kingfrog because, like you, he hates Verizon. That said, the criticism of him comes not so much from the fact that he hates Verizon, but that he insists on TROLLING THE VERIZON FORUM 24-7, with garbage attac...

No, it wasn't. It was a comment on how people can't seem to stand up for themselves instead of acting like kids who had their candy stolen. You call it bile because I said it.

I assure you that's not the case. I try not to watch.

But of course when a message is reported, we investigate.

If someone wants to complain about a company, they are free to do so. If you disagree, you are free to ignore them or engage them, as you wish, as long as it stays civilized.

I guess calling people "empty-headed animal food trough wipers" isn't civilized.... 😕

Lighten up people. If Kingfrog gets that bad, then just report it. I engaged him, and he seemed to shut up. He's nothing when you actually engage him on facts...went after the root of the problem and I actually got him to shut up. It's possible.

Or just ignore him.

In either case, lighten up!

I think Rich needs to create a separate members only section dedicated to "Phonescoop Gone Wild". He can place all the deleted "report to moderator" posts and copies of messages he might of sent users reprimanding them for whatever profanity etc.

This may sound sooooooo stupid, but can someone inform me what trolling exactly is. I have an idea, but not quite clear what classifies that.
Did I mention I'm a dirty BLONDE??? Thanks in advance!
