What is the "TROLL" feature for on your profile? I just saw mine and noticed there are "25" under "TROLL"..

    It is how many many times you have commented on a thread and called a poster a troll.

    If you accidentally hit any of the buttons, you can click it again to remove it. Sometimes I hit them on accident

    Actually...I think it is the number of times someone has flagged one of your posts as "troll".  It looks like chrisnjenn has flagged you as a troll 25 times.  

    Don't sweat it...a few people think it is funny to abuse/misuse the flags; or perhaps this was an accident (25 times).

    Looks like for some reason chrisnjenn has taken a dislike to you for whatever reason. I wouldn't worry about it too much. Doesn't seem like those rankings really mean anything other than somebody took the time to start flagging you. My troll count is at 143 and a bunch of those are from people who ended up getting banned from this forum. Some people have too much time on their hands.

    I have a bunch but they're all from somebody called Cen-Tex Smoker. Anybody ever hear of this guy?

    Well screw chrisnjenn LOL... Someone does have to much time on their hands... especially to "troll" someone 25 times in a matter of a few minutes.. Is there any way to block members so they cant see what you post?

    I don't think so.  You have to ignore them the old fashioned way :). 

    In my humble opinion,they should eliminate the flags (troll, spam, abuse) all together.  This site doesn't have any moderation.  In other sites you "report" and then a mod reviews it and decides if it is really a troll/spam and removes the offending post.  Here...people can just throw flags willy nilly and nothing is done anyway so whats the point!

    I hear ya... People come here for info, to give info and to read reviews on different accessories. Out of all the "trolled" I got from him, I didn't see one comment that was out of the ordinary.. Oh well.. You can take the couple out of the trailer park, but you cant take the trailer park out of the couple..
