More whinging from you LOL. There's no stalking here I merely replied in a thread you started, you became emabarrassed and resorted to using foul language towards me. A delicate little flower you are.

I had to look up what whinging meant. Now I know, I learn things from CCS and a man named Spunky Porkstacker.
I guess Warden gets an assist.

Surprising a man that appears to be a worldly internets traveler such as yourself wasn't familar with that word.
I doubt being an example for the word was the OP's intent but that's on him.

Let's be honest here, you seek me out. Let's also be honest that you bumped an old thread which you already stated your opinion on just to be a ******. So you're both a stalker and a ******. So your new name shall be Douchey Porkstalker.
You're a pest, I'll just not reply to you anymore in hopes you just fade away. Oh and don't follow me anymore, it's both creepy and annoying. I'm not interested in you SP, get the hint.

While I am sorry that you have someone you consider to demonstrate "stalking" behavior at you in how they follow your postings and make negative comments and likely feedbacks towards you, I am happy that it is only appearing to be one poster, for your sake, because you can only imagine what it is like to literally have three to four times this, which is appearing to be my situation. I have awakened to a multiple of what you experience usually in the form of feedback notifications or post-replies with completely off-topic content from the same group, consisting of ADIPOST, who seems to be the leader of them, followed by WINTERMUTE, NOBULLS, XUDERCLAM, and sometimes MODO. Literally nothing they say ever makes licks of sense, they rarely if ever provide content related to what I have posted, and their feedbacks are unproductive, untopical, un-constructive, uncaring, uncalled-for, and it seems, unrelenting. Just be happy with your one stalking-fanatic because if you had more you would be in even worse-for-wear.

FTR my last reply to this dude was to say his posts are becoming more salient. I also positive repped one of his recent posts. I'm starting to find him less annoying, and more amusing, and somewhat sympathetic, particularly because many think he's something he's not, and I feel he is stuck with a cloying mother who is holding him back. However, this little call out here, spelling my name wrong, and inferring that I follow, or am part of a group lead by the likes of Adipostman, calls for a dank bang.
Consider yourself disliked, once I spread a bit more love around CCS.

Psychologists have identified the kind of emotional intelligence that makes internet trolls so mean
What is it with people’s behavior online? Why the readiness to attack, the snarky tone, the lack of courtesy inherent to so many comments? The internet can bring out the worst in people, which when taken to extremes turns into trolling—that bizarre impulsive habit of hurting others online, without consequence.
Researchers in Australia set out to discover what traits in “normal” people (social media users above age 18 who did not appear to be trolls) might make them susceptible to trolling behavior. Using an online questionnaire, the researchers at the School of Health Science and Psychology at Federation University in Mount Helen tested 415 men and women for a range of personality traits, as well as for online behavior that indicated a propensity to troll—such as agreeing with the statement, “Although some people think my posts/comments are offensive, I think they are funny.”
The researchers were looking for particular traits including social skills, psychopathy, sadism, and two types of empathy: affective and cognitive. Having high cognitive empathy simply means they can understand others’ emotions. Having high affective empathy means a person can experience, internalize, and respond to those emotions. The “trolls” in the study scored higher than average on two traits: psychopathy and cognitive empathy.
So even though “trolls” exhibit one kind of empathy, coupling it with psychopathy ultimately makes them nasty, the researchers suggested. Psychopathy, which includes a lack of care for others’ feelings, was measured using a scale where participants were asked to agree or disagree with a set of statements such as, “payback needs to be quick and nasty.”
High levels of cognitive empathy make these people adept at recognizing what will upset someone, and knowing when they’ve pushed the right buttons. The lack of affective empathy allows trolls not to experience or internalize the emotional experience of their victims.
“Results indicate that when high on trait psychopathy, trolls employ an empathic strategy of predicting and recognising the emotional suffering of their victims, while abstaining from the experience of these negative emotions,” the researchers wrote. They added that because psychopathy is associated with thrill-seeking and impulsivity, it’s possible that “creating mayhem online is a central motivator to troll.” They also found that trolls were likely to be high in sadism—the will to hurt others—and were more likely to be male.
The study is forthcoming in the journal Personality and Individual Differences. It doesn’t offer advice on how to stop trolling behavior, but adds a wrinkle to our knowledge of why people act out online. In previous research, people who display psychopathic traits have shown a similar empathy imbalance: a lack affective empathy but normal levels of cognitive empathy. This study linked those psychopathic traits and higher cognitive empathy levels to people who are likely to troll.
Exploring the link between psychopathy, high cognitive empathy, and trolling could help deepen our understanding of the personality types that gravitate towards that behavior, and potentially help to stop them.

Explain how you found the Extra Point thread? It sure wasn't on page 1. It was probably buried on page 20 which means you went actively searching for it. You can't help yourself. I don't understand it either on why I seem to be a target. I think I'm pretty respectful of others on the board, I don't have an attitude. I guess I just don't get it.
