JPF Home Page Forums General Messages General Message Forum THE TROLL PATROL

This is posted by self appointed deputy sheriff Marty. I am not a moderator and I don't know how long this site will be here, but I just made a donation so I hope for a while yet. IMO this site is being smothered in vitriol, and songs have become incidental to arguments. This TROLL PATROL thread is a place where you can copy and paste someone's exact harassment of you, be it name calling, misc insults or just incessant harassment after you've asked them to leave you out of their world. It will give the moderators and owner one place to come look to see what is going on, rather than having to chase after insults that break the rules and are spread about the site.

My suggested protocol...
If someone puts up a song, comment on it if you like. Courteously.
If they rebuff your comment and you don't agree, comment and give your POV one more time, courteously...and drop it there.
If they start harassing you, put their comments on display here.

If we can create a calm and pleasant atmosphere, maybe some old posters will return and new ones will join in.

Wow.. you're even lamer and more bored than I thought.

Haven't you figured out that nobody cares what you think?

I like how you're thinking, Marty...I also believe the best way to handle a troll is to ignore them...don't respond to their critique of your post and don't critique their posts

240830 Personal insult #1 from Dominick Dunne (Fdemetrio)
(This site's most active troll)

Dominick,
Did you, at least, make a monetary contribution to the site?

I agree with you Steve, but if trolls are allowed to run free on a site, they wont stop if you ignore them. They feed on disruption and will destroy the site. IMO, that is what has happened to this site.

Brian made the point that he is not aware of a lot that goes on here and would act on it if he was. He proved that up. The point of the TROLL PATROL is to make it easy for him to see what is here.

Steve a culture has been created here where people only respond to Guys songs, and a few others.

That's collusion, resentment, and frankly dishonesty. Those qualities do not a site make. The music, not the person should be the subject of conversation

Marty is just never going to stop. He's posted one song in a year, and he thinks he owns the place

You are a troll , yiu

Why do you get a cut? Irrelevant.

Your little crusade here is nothing but a broken pride repair attempt.

You got everything, except songs. Go where your pettiness matters, it don't matter here .admit defeat and roll on out

Not really Dom. It is not at all irrelevant. The bottom line is it costs at least $1200 to keep this online for another year. I will try to cover overages to a reasonable level, but if users value the site, time to put up or shut up. I realize your anonymity would make that impossible, so how about just not BEING a troll anymore? It is your 6K+ posts to use or lose. If X number of people pay to keep the doors open, I will keep them open. Scaring away every newbie so you can have ongoing fights with nearly everyone does not help anyone. If you don't want us to continue, we can help you out the door first. If other people continue to support us, I will keep it here forever. That simple really. Have some fun, agree or disagree without making it personal, and you can keep your current account as long as you want. You haven't "owned" anyone, ...of your arguments you are clearly on the losing side in well more than half. If you don't like someone's music, explain why and move on or simply don't listen. You can hit the "ignore" button just like everyone else.

BTW, I am not sure I like this post. Not really into tattletale boards. If there is an actionable problem, send it to me in a PM as rehashing bad behavior here just doubles it in the first place.

As you like.
My personal hope was that this post would end up amounting to an unused threat, that would suppress harassment.
But if you want it down, I understand.

Marty

PM to Brian;
((""JAPOV" can't do anything here without starting an argument...
So, go ahead and cancel the account.

Is it possible to create a new account?
I've been trying, but I get no response...

I promise, I won't interact or start new threads.
I'll only post music.""))



I've already deleted "JAPOV" everywhere else...

No, keep the same name, it will be a greater accomplishment changing and it showing.

We're all guilty of the Peter Pan syndrome , including me. It's just a song , AI or not .
Therapy and pills ,mad about AI songs , silly . 90% of our life is over , And we're fighting lol

but the reply was to Marty, what does me donating money to the site have to do with telling Marty that his non stop ambition to have me off the site, somehow thinking it makes him shine, have to to do with it?

Id be donating to the site, not him. I started posted udio stuff several months ago, the site was a ghost town, not one new post, completely dead, i started posting udio stuff and then there was traffic.

Marty took it upon himself to ruin my experience, and attack every song i posted, simply because he wanted room for his own music.

i had invested years and decades of living experience and taking notes of myself in that music, it was amazing i could bring them all into a recording so fast, and very rewarding, a bit frustrating, and its not complete, but rewarding in a way. stuff id never thought id use suddenly had a place/

This bozo complety ruined that experience, and wont apoligize. He recruited others like Gavin, and Ben, Rob B to come into my thread and attack...robot this, robot that, suddenly Rob B thats all he does now is AI songs.

I dont view donating as a way to act and behave how i want to, i see it as keeping a site going. others clearly think donating enables them to treat people how they want to.

But keep it going how? Have my songs ignored, have them attacked, having people tell other people how great their jiberish is?

I could donate, but what benefit do i get? Ignored and harassed? Or is a donation suddenly going to change all that?

Which is a bit like payola.

and I know it's not you Brian, you need to keep the site going, but we buy on benefits. I find myself fighting off trolls all the time, what benefit is that?

Dom

Try this..
Put up an occasional song.
Make polite comments on other people's songs.
No more than two on Any Given song.
Leave my name out of it. Leave Rob out of it. Leave anyone else that you want to criticize or personally attack , out of it
You can count on me not to comment on your songs or any other post that you originate.

If you do that, your world will be a better place and so will this website.

If your songs appeal to people, then they will make comments and that will be that.


Ps

I recruited no one. Whatever feelings people have about artificial intelligence and your music is independent of me.

Marty try this:

Dom, im truly sorry for ruining your new experience, and for creating a culture of hate on Dom, and continue to do it, im so sorry, i ruined every song you posted, cause i was jealous of you.

No apology? Youll make no requests of me? Got that Beaver?

PS they saw that you were doing what you were doing, and decided to side with you and pile on, it wasnt their idea it was yours. you created an illusion I was the problem, im the only fackin songwriter on the damn forum. Saw one yesterday... Dean

Pretty good, a dolt who cant keep my name out of his rants, asks me to not mention him?

Heres a deal: Kick Marty off the forum and ill donate 200 bucks .

hes posted one song in a year, hes not worth that, but i think he needs somewhere else to play

No one owes you an apology, Dominick.

Quit digging a hole and fishing for fights.

][/quote]

Did i say Plural? everyone?

again you need multiple people to fight your battles...


i said YOU owe Me an appology, You had no right to shite on every song i posted, when you tried AI your songs were atrocious. IM BETTER than you

get over it.

but your costing Brian money without an appology, or disapearing, nobody missed you when you cried away last time

Dom

Post one of the many songs that you deleted. You will see no interference from me.

You are not going to motivate others with this episode.

Am in Lexington VA tonight. Cannot give this any more time.

Think songs Dom.

doesnt matter you did what you did. Somehow makes it better if you dont shite on them this time?


Motivate? i just want an appology, you disturbed a very interesting time for me.

Not willing?, play the hard way, where e kick your ass with the music
