No, he doesn’t reach the level of troll, because he’s just boring.

that’s standing “alone” not “along” above.

“critiquing the site and etsy with real concerns is hardly trolling”
I agree with that statement, standing along. You, however, have not raised any “real” concerns. Unless you count the imaginary one about your paranoia about some fees you think/thought would be charged here.
Elizabeth,
I personally don’t have time or energy for some unknown troll online - I have other more productive ways in which to interact with people. So, I will had this off to you . . . glad someone is entertained. If the comments had any substance, I would happily engage in some dialogue, as I have with others.
OK, that’s the end for me - back to ignoring the troll, at least publicly.

Trolls are generally entertaining, too.

If you think all those posts are trolling, you’re nuts — critiquing the site and etsy with real concerns is hardly trolling. It always feels like trolling if you’re the one running the blog.

I’ll add to the above list as necessary.

LNJ - btw, I HOPE you are Mark, the site you’re attributing to yourself as you haven’t corrected me when I called you Mark earlier. But somehow I doubt someone with a public WHOIS file would be posting openly on his/her own identity.
I am very sad you are such an unhappy person I have to post this - to date, you have not made a single constructive comment on this site and frankly it’s gone into abuse. Every one else here (both supporters as well as people less than enamored of the site now) seems to at least be talking about etsy, and how it operates or whatever - the following are all of your posts I managed to find after combing through the comments - please let me know if I overlooked something else. They all are personal in being directed to someone running this site, this site or one of the editors or other posters - I guess the one comment about etsy site running faster than this one can be viewed as a backhanded compliment to etsy. But other than that, you’re just spewing unhappiness.
This isn’t anything personal, I don’t know you and really don’t care one way or another about you but you’re just an irritant and disrupting flow of this forum - “disagreement” is moot as none of your comments have any substance. You are welcome to post what you feel is negative about etsy and how you would change it but I am asking you to refrain from attacking anyone personally on this site. And this is my personal opinion. btw - the concept of “truth” applies to facts.
I hope you go out and play with some friends - maybe a beer IRL would help ;)
Anyway, here are you troll posts - all of them - please feel free to let me know if I missed any:
You guys want to be charged right away so badly, it doesnt make sense.

So begins the downward spiral… are we going to start removing curse words, too?

They’ll raise the rates just like Etsy did, Etsy used to be free too. Now look at what they’ve done!

Also, will this slow the site down more than it already is? It crawls along painfully without making those checks now.
