Well, now that notyou ruined it!!! Sorry Betiko, you are a no good stinking double poster.

Yeah it's normal, at least for my generation. When it's a ring it's usually pre-planned all the way down to slippin the technician a 50spot (A judge will marry a couple for 100 cash). I think kiss cams are much more random.

I wonder if this has ever been done to a gay couple, or if they will get in trouble for only kiss camming straight couples?

Yeah i was thinking that maybe it was a big thing to pre plan with the stadium guys such thing in the US to propose. Wasn t familiar with that kiss cam concept. So how does it go, they search randomly people in the stadium that seem to be on a first date or something? Or just any couple?

Narcissistic trolling? Never heard of such a thing.

Yeah, I think they're talking about trolls on sites where people are trying to get help with serious mental or emotional issues...sites where people are discussing coping with illnesses....sites like that. They probably include bullying behaviour too.



Disgusting stuff that will get you banned on CC. Which is why I rarely post here anymore....

Narcissistic trolling? Never heard of such a thing. I think you misinterpreted personality traits of the troll (which was what the story highlighted), with what type of way one can troll in (which is what you are talking about). I can name quite a lot of users I would consider narcissists, including myself for good measure. I'd go so far as to say most of us here show narcissistic tendencies. Who here really gives a damn about what happens to anyone else on this forum?

Gili, just because you don't care about your fellow Off Topic denizens, doesn't mean WE DON'T ALL CARE ABOUT YOU AND YOUR WELL BEING!?!#^

You warm my heart and make me feel bad at the same time. So who's the real sadist around here? Andy you machiavellian sadist!!!

I'll bite my tongue since you have been behaving recently.

Now you're just trolling.....or self-cencoring. It's one of the two.

Because you like to engage in the disgusting stuff? I don't think I ever thought that about you (and you go back to the Flame Wars forum).

That's what I was implying...but I was being sarcastic. If you were me, you would probably think it was funny because it's so far from the truth.

Doesn't telling a joke that you have to be you to find funny make you a narcissist if ever you saw one in your own mirror?

Not sure if that is enough....but I was considering attempting to go through the entire list of conditions to see how long it would take for someone to catch on...


You people are sharp!

Genuine question: What do you think has more of an influence on OT participation:

- The trolling on OT
- The prevelance of cliques on OT
- The prevelance of mind-numbing political debate on OT

???
