intro

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Wikipedia wrote:Hostile attitudes of the cityfolk towards Royalist prisoners held in Coventry during the English Civil War is believed to have originated the phrase "sent to Coventry", which in Britain means 'to be ostracised'.

i don't know Claire -do you reckon it's like wasps? when you kill one it gives off pheremones that attract other wasps hell-bent on avenging their fallen comrade.do you think it works the same with banned trolls? :innocent:

hope you're not being outrophobic.it's highly offensive to dismiss them as simply intros that are going in the other direction -going out is just as normal as going in.how dare you suggest that intros are normal and outros are some sort of freakish troll-like mutants who.......etc etc.(ad infinitum ;ad nauseum)

I didn't think of Rosalie as a troll, more an over earnest young lady trying a bit too hard.

Depends if trolling is a civil offence or not.

If it is, then intent is irrelevant :twisted:

OK, assumption. Although I was clearly stating an opinion, not putting something forward as fact. Or something... :urff:
