Imagine some annoying little shit is trolling you to prove how badass he is. In your opinion, is retaliation justified, or does it make you a butthurt faggot?
> Depends who you are calling an annoying little shit!!
How about someone like (for example) Balfomoar on TC?

Under what circumstances would you retaliate?

It's hard to say. Could you be more specific on the type of situation you are talking about and what you mean by retaliate?

Well, just for argument's sake, let's say some shit-head cracks your tripcode, impersonates you on the board, and generally acts like a drooling fucktard. Would you be justified in letting the rest of the board know what a gigantic pedofaggot he is?

Well Bal is an over inflated, highly self opinionated gentleman who appears to think his sermons impress lesser people than himself [which includes everyone ] Truth be told he doesn't have half the influence he thinks he has. If a young lad like myself can see that then I'm sure wiser folk can too. He is at liberty to spout his bile.
The greater pity is that he seems incapable of taking a positive view whatever the subject.

I guess that's justifiable as long as you aren't really angry over it. You shouldn't be taking what happens on the chans seriously.

So long as it's not doing something that is going to damage their personal life in any way, sure.

How about hacking someone's email account and sending gay porn to all of his contacts in an attempt to get the victim expelled from university? Does that qualify as damaging someone's personal life?

Actually, I saw it happen to someone over on Tinychan. Just goes to prove that TC is one of the biggest hives of faggotry in the chanosphere.

Do you think it justifies driving over a thousand miles to Michigan?

If anybody threatens to drive to another state to settle an Internet argument, they automatically lose the game.

That wasn't just an internet argument. The hacker violated the law and deliberately attempted to ruin someone else's life, career and future.

Do you have proof of this? You haven't even posted a link to the person claiming to be this supposed super hacker.

I never post on Tinychan, Bobby. It's one of the shittiest boards on the face of the planet.

I used to. They Blacklisted me for being verbose. I can't argue with that. But I find here a gentle nudge this way and that keeps me doing the right thing. Such a pity. novice, first time users need a helping hand. Least ways I do.

I thought this was all hypothetical.
You know, you seem to be quite knowledgable in this "hypothetical" situation. Why don't you explain it to me?

You were new in town, Bobby. If you'd been there long enough, you would've realized that TC is a festering hive of fags, pedos and shit-tier trolls. You're much better off here, trust me.

I'd rather not do that, as it concerns a well known user of this board. I'll leave it to him to explain the matter, if he wishes to discuss the subject again.
I will say this, however: he was treated very badly by the scum out at TC, and had every right to be angry. As mentioned above, it went a long way beyond a simple online disagreement.

It seems that you're the annoyed one here. After all, you're asking us if retaliating against somebody who made fun of you on the Internet is justified.
Now, here's the important question: what are you going to do about it?

All right: as of this post, 62 percent of respondents voted that retaliation is entirely justified against shitty little trollfags and that calling out a fucktard on his incessant faggotry does not equal butthurt. Based on these results, I recommend that:
A) Use of the shitmeme "Lol U Mad" (and all variations thereof) be strictly forbidden under the rules, and
B) Anyone caught posting it be labeled a faggot and buttfucked with the banhammer until the end of time.
THE PEOPLE HAVE SPOKEN.
