    Default Dont Troll

    Look, im not a big fan of PvP/etc.etc.insertunpopulartopic either, but some people genuinely do have interest in it. If you disagree with something, present rational, and preferably calm arguments against it

    example-

    irrational trolling- "no, i hate pvp, i would pay money to see all the pvping morons be quiet about their dumb impossible ideas"
    rational disagreement- "no, i dont think pvp is possible due to the way that DDO is designed, as a PvE experience, in addition, i really think devs should spend time expanding the DDO map as a pose to working on pvp"

    same goes for anything else. Be rational. Follow forum rules. Dont troll.

    main idea- i am saying to "not troll" in general, using a commonly trolled topic, PvP, as an example, this is not a thread that is for or against pvp

    EDIT- i define trolling here as- an argument that is both rude/abrasive and comprises of no evidence or rational argument. the rude/abrasive part is more important than the nonrational argument (if there is no rudeness, then its just an unsupported argument, not trolling)
    NO WHERE DO I SAY YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED TO DISAGREE, just disagree in a rational, non name-calling way ya?

    EDIT- the large majority of the topics and threads on the DDO forum are free from trolling, with good advice, no insults, and much math-fu, it is not actually prevalent in the forums yet, its not really a "you cant stop people because its done all the time here" problem yet.
