That's true. We've enough trolls here in the UK, some of whom even post regularly on this website.

'Troll : someone who dares to have a different opinion to you, and in the interests of democracy must be silenced immediately.'

Or something like that.

If you asked who is (are) the troll(s) on here, you would get a very small list back from posters.

People who post here are easily able to distinguish between those who have minority opinions and those who post simply to bait people.

So Flintshire. (and unlike Nick_cb who will debate back and forth, I don't expect you to answer these as you never seem to want to backup your convictions when queried)

Do you think fat cyclists cause accidents because they block out other cyclists in front?
Do you believe Nick Freeman is a top road safety expert being as his living is to defend people who broke road safety laws regularly?
Do you think being banned for racism, then coming back on under a different psuedonym that they then regulalry change including using it to blame a cyclist who died in a collision because of the bike they rode is just a different opinion?

And please give reasons why these are valid opinions rather then deliberately trolling comments if you do agree with Boo on the above items.

This is a mischaracterisation of Nick Freeman's job.

I know there's a lot of interest here, so I thought I'd note that lawyer extraordinaire, road safety expert, and all-round good egg Nick Freeman

Which tw*t was it who said the above? Oh yes the resident Road.cc sea lion!

Ok Boo, I will go against my normal stated policy but you have asked me to get the details straight from the arses mouth. 

So where you claim you are not Boo even though all what he used to state and all you state tallies up and that person is different.
You claim banned boo did not get banned but deliberately asked for all of his postings and his account to be removed "cause reasons", so how did he contact you to tell you this? I mean afterall, when I previously confronted you over this you had never heard of this person before. Surely if I'm so mistaken he would have contacted me to put the record straight rather then contact another total stranger. I mean it did seem weird that the morning after he posted racist comments about Irish people all his posts and his account disappeared. I wonder why after posting that he thought "no, I better just ask to leave" Was it because people were rightly calling it racist I wonder? So again, the main question I would like answering is how did someone you have never heard of who left this site before you ever arrived, manage to contact you to put the record straight instead of contacting the person who is spreading the news he was banned. 

I will pre-empt you in that I smell your favourite smell, Bullshit. It must be your favourite as you seem to worship it in all your role models. 

Oh and to pick up the other obvious lie about username issues. PHP errors stopped you logging on, but you could still change your username to logon past the errors without managing to logon. Maybe the errors happened because you had already changed your username to "YouareallCyberbullies" when you had a hissy fit and vowed (but of course broke that vow straight away) to leave the site and never post again. Also very starnge that the only username to work for you was TTDanger which you used to post some vile comments about the death of a young lady that even more laid back members of this site reported you over and were removed by admin. Just a shame that you then didn't "ask for your account to be removed" just like boo to save the rest of us from putting up with you. 

And before the more right wing members argue that my last coments are about silencing opinions and not being democratic. Can I just remind you that #boycottGBNews was trending when a presenter decided to do an AntiRacism gesture after twitter bile went through the roof in the summer and he was subsequently forced to resign. So both sides of the spectrum will hate differing opinions that the "majority" of the platform users might not have.  

All correct especially the nonsense about 'I had to change my username because I couldn't login' even though you had to have logged in successfully to change it.

Then change it another 5 times.

Funny how you were the only one who had to change their name and then decided to change it to 'you are all cyberbullies' then one or two days later to 'tt danger'. Instead of the normal nigel garrage1. More lies.

And you did post as TT danger on the woman who was badly injured and trolled about the incident. Of course, you could have changed your username back but you prefer to suck people into responding, leaving them thinking it is a different poster.

Your whole approach is baiting and any other forum would have banned you months ago.

Boris and Donnie would be so proud. 

Ok, lets break down this then. First you knew Boo IRL, but even though you both have similar interests in riding only by yourself, supporting far right and bumbling leaders, hating cycling clubs, hating TT bikes, victim blaming cyclists and having a hard on against Cycling Mikey, you only decided to join a site your "mate" left 8 or so months previously. Yep ok. SoIF I would now believe you, it would obviously meant you lied when I confronted you previously about this and you stated you don't know anything about the fella. Of course so strange you know the exact thing that was posted and was then gone the very next day. 

Yes, there was a long thread about issues on the site, not one thing about being trapped in user page and I don't remember anyone else having to change their username at all. You must be so unlucky that you needed to change it several times and not one other person did but also very lucky that your name change occurred before the news of the collisions. I mean even though it must have been seconds before as I distinctly remember the name was You Are All CyberBullies that morning and then it was TT Danger that afternoon with me commenting about the name change having to do with that story and Hirsute stating he had made the complaint about your crass comments. 

So anyway, as you are now clearly a fantasist on a windup making offensive comments and still peddling conspiracies when you want to, I will go back to talking about you and not talking to you Boo.

First - story was about whether we needed stuff from some guy in Finland joking about driving into cyclists.

Does that mean you agree with the sentiment, think this is all in good robust humour or are merely pitching in in favour of a friend / your master?

Kind of you to activate your dictionary mode though.

I think I'll run with these definitions myself:

https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/troll

troll noun [C] (COMPUTING)
someone who leaves an intentionally annoying or offensive message on the internet, in order to upset someone or to get attention or cause trouble
a message that someone leaves on the internet that is intended to annoy people:

troll verb [I or T] (ANNOY) informal
to leave an insulting or offensive message on the internet in order to upset someone, or to get attention or cause trouble:

Not sure what dictionary you pulled that definition from. But it's definitely not in any of the dictionaries I have. 

You mean that it isn't already, at times???!!!
