Ok what is with all these newbie trolls popping up around here spoiling everyone's day by posting 2-3 times PER THREAD in every thread about how they think each model or picture is discusting and how they lost their breakfast?Did the Mousepad's levee break or something?This is rediculous i have had 2 girls now stop returning my e-mails i got done photographing because i sent them the link to their thread on here and some punk said something nasty about them..that's a great way to show a girl how the foot community works isn't it?Is anyone else noticing this lately?We need to stand up for our close knit community here and protect what we have.

This has been brought to Wu's attention.
I can't say what's up for the time being, but know this Brother Wrinklesguy: steps will get taken...
We have too good a forum and community to let some idiotic trash talkers who sling shit from behind their keyboards throw a wrench into any of it. Opinions are fine, but being a jerk most certainly is not.

You Da Man Brother Lou! Posted by ledaemon (Member # 198) on :
Yeah, I know what you're talking about. I went back looking over the guy you're mentioning's last 50 posts and probably 3/4 of them were negative comments on personal pics people had posted. I never saw one which was an original thread started by him. I suppose its much easier to jump on and spew negativity rather than contribute something to the board.
Posted by Sockratease (Member # 13891) on :
Yes...
There should not be such rampant negativity allowed.
Saying Nothing is the way to go if you don't like an image!
Unless it's one of my stupid animations...
Then feel free to criticize!
I openly ask for opinions and have no problem getting what I ask for.
But that's just stupid animations.
And I Asked For It!
There's a difference!
Be Nice, People!

Despite what's written under my avatar I still consider myself a newbie since it's just a couple of months that I am here.
Now,I am a foreigner and I am not sure about the exact definition of the term "troll",so would someone please give me an exact one so I can see if i am included in that definition?
Posted by Sockratease (Member # 13891) on :
I don't understand most of the terminology used on the internet, but in this case I believe the "Troll" part is just a general insult.
The complaint is about those who post maliciously, and often.
Trolls or not!

Don't worry my Brother, you are not a troll at all!
A troll is basically some person who likes to insult people and cause problems. You're a good guy, so don't worry about whether or not you're a troll. Posted by Mighty Mike (Member # 1922) on :
Some feet are just unattractive and then some look unhealthy. I don't make negative comments about any pics but quite often some people post pics of feet that look very unhealthy. Toe fungus, dirt in the toe nails, chipped nail polish, dead skin, missing toes, calluses.
I don't think anybody should have a problem with somebody making negative comments about these pics and I highly doubt i'm the only one that hates opening a thread to see pics like that.
like I said I never make negative comments about pics but I hope you aren't saying those that do are trolls because they point out how unhealthy the feet might look
if you think the feet are unattractive, keep it to yourself
if they look unhealthy the girl should know

Thanks a lot Lou,I appreciate this,especially coming from one of the columns of this forum like you.
And of course thanks for the definition .
Getting back into the topic I think that if you find a foot ugly,then why bother posting?
One thing is giving a GENTLE "tip" like "IMHO your feet would look a bit nicer with some heel smoothing" (I think that polite criticism should be welcome when it might turn out to be helpful),another one is posting just to say "hey that made me puke" and to lack of respect towards anyone. What's the point in that?
Let's make an example. You are hungry,hence you walk into the first restaurant you find along the way. Once in you find out that it's chinese food (just an example,I have nothing against chinese food) and you do not like chinese food. What do you do now? A)You walk out and go to eat somewhere else. B)You start complaining loud about how much you don't like that food.
Rethorical question I think. Of course,if you chose B well,your logic is pretty flawed (just to be gentle,which anyway you would not deserve after an answer like that).

We all have differant likes n dislikes about feet,no 2 of us have the same definition on what's a perfect pair of feet;some like soft,some like rough,some like polish some don't,etc.therefor I feel newbie or not if they see somthing they don't like,don't write anything,ecspecially if thease are personal pics because the person who took them will feel bad and then remember to hate u,and we all know there's barely any beef on this board and I think I speak for everyone who's on here all the time that we like to keep it that way....chances are the people who make thease comments are unaware that in order to enter you must be atleast 18,nah mean?
Posted by vineofthorns (Member # 1313) on :
BUT I will say this,if you are a guy posing as a girl showing your manly feet,or u are posting pics of minors feet without faces,you deserve all the negative feedback you get!
Posted by Wrinklesguy (Member # 732) on :
Especially when i put up an internet ad for foot models and PAY THESE GIRLS $50+ per shoot and only a few nice compliments from you cool guys as re-payment.. so you trolls keep your mouth shut if you don't like the feet,i always post quality stuff..i personally would not post anything on here that is bogus or ugly feet..maybe dusty or slightly dirty for those of you who like that..but nothing to cause a troll to need to say something.

One aspect I associate with Wu's forum is the general level of respect and discretion shown here by the members.
Unfortunately there are people who use their freedom of speech negatively. But fortunately, this isn't the U.S. government, so I say...moderate ---> Posted by FTPHANTOM (Member # 47) on :

Hummm as long as I have been coming here,I don't think I have ever seen any ugly feet here Posted by ozkar (Member # 13264) on :
Different tastes aside, some of the people in question need to be reminded that there are woman attached to the feet they are viewing.

Hello Wrinklesguy -
You call them trolls .. I call them pathetic losers (and assholes).
Posted by Salvy_Mic (Member # 13384) on :
Y'know, this is just one symptom of being a member of a forum. Trolls simply come with the territory. Now, with that said, this forum is impressive to me because of the near lack of trolls. I for one haven't really seen any real trolls. And that is a good sign, myself being a veteran of wrestling and MMA forums. That's where the true vitriol lies and lingers. This place is very, very peaceful, and the fact that there's a whole thread dedicated to eradicating this small nuisance is quite remarkable.
Posted by wvcple2003 (Member # 5268) on :
Ive posted pics of the wife on here before, and received some very good comments. To tell the truth, if negative comments were posted on her, no matter how easy they were, "She has rough heels I would be glad to rub lotion on them",we would probably never post a pic again. Ive seen feet on her from hubbys bragging on their wives; and their wives feet were not my cup of tea, but I looked, hit the back button and went to the next topic, and kept my mouth shut. Some people just need to grow up.

* LET'S STOP BSing OURSELVES ! ! ! *
ALL the women who pose for foot fetish sites are PAID models or pro doms for hire. NONE of them pose for love of any community, and ONLY a TOTAL MORON would think any of the models ever bother to read any of wu's forums for social purposes. Why should they?
If they do make original posts or replies, it's ONLY for the purpose of promoting their sites or sometimes to advertise themselves as professional dominatrixes specializing in a foot fetish.
RND OF STORY!

It's ironic that the topic here happens to be "Trolls" and that this is an absolutely perfect example of one. Not only is he completely out of touch, but he is absolutely wrong on all counts and reading his post will prove that to all REAL members of this forum (and some of the lurkers as well).
Aside from the lack of understanding of thse forums (and grasp of their purpose), there is a thinly-veiled maliciousness and obvious resentment underlying it all.
Finally, I invite attention to the fact that this (Troll?) poster has but five posts which demonstrates he / she is in fact a Lurker himself .. or has spent no time in these forums - and therefore, absolutely not enough time to learn anything about them (and us), and to fairly guage whether or not his erroneous statements are even worthy of a post.
Think about this for just five seconds: can ANYBODY who is an actual and real member of these forums POSSIBLY apply ANY of what this poster states to the beautiful Wife of Cain??? Or to any of the friends of Rafael??? And this is not to mention Malory, who herself was soured on the "Wus" experience from Trolls such as this, and hasn't even so much as logged in her for at least two months .. and who, by the way, has no site of her own and has never made a dime from any of HER photos.
How about any of the fine people in here to proudly post photos of their girlfriend or wife's feet? Or the dear girls and women to do this for their husbands and boyfriends??? If this poster himself were a genuine member and has actually spent at least twenty minutes in the photo section he would know this.

I can't tell how many times I've seen pics with chipped polish, dry heels etc...and thought why post that. But I keep it to myself. On the other hand they had the guts to post and good for them for that.
Posted by Lou Gojira (Member # 983) on :
Good response Ben! Glad you caught this misinformed knucklehead that calls himself Sid before me, I would've replied pretty much the same way you just did. Posted by Wrinklesguy (Member # 732) on :
Ben, you mean all those fancy lunches in Redmond you took Malory to didn't qualify as "payment" for her foot modeling? j/k..yeah the guy has no idea what he's talking about, no doubt another minion from the Mousepad's dungeon trying to claw his way into our society but failing. Posted by F18Hornet (Member # 11172) on :
Ben, Lou, Mike, I totally agree with you all. There seems to have been a rise in the type of posts you are talking about. There have also been a lot of posts relating to minors recently - those responsible have been rightfully banned. Thinking about it, almost all of the newbie comments have appeared in a very short space of time. I wonder if only one person is creating several different IDs and posting one nasty message after another since I find it hard to believe that all the newbies during the last 8 weeks or so are all posting crass messages.
Either way, I may just have come up with a possible solution for you. Would it be possible for someone, or several people, to 'vet' the first 10 or so posts a newbie makes and then the 'vettor' decides whether they should be posted to the board and whether or not to ban them, like Bush's 'pre-emtive strike"?
Bingo...problem solved. Comments?
