Not sure if hijacking is a real offense or not, but British Socialisim, Gramnonia and Jibea are having a grand old time.

I don't mind too much, but I could see at least one poster who got frustrated by it;

I do suspect it was intentional, but relative enough to not be particularly offensive.

The thread itself is borderline trolling.

There was already a thread on domestic violence in which B0zzy was participating.

Then he created this new, inflammatory thread about a "feminist coverup."

Although B0zzy complains the thread was hijacked, others complained because B0zzy started this inflammatory thread and then left it.

B0zzy complains of hijacking at posts #61, #62, etc. But after starting the thread, B0zzy did not post again until post #50. Then his posting was sporadic and mostly non-responsive.

Moreover, B0zzy's posts -- particularly in light of trolling topic -- are flaming, flamebait, and/or further trolling:

Give it up TCT, if you have an issue, post your own thread here in moderation.

Since you asked, I will tell you that started the thread in question is because it has enough different info as to branch off from the parent - I was trying NOT to hijack that one.

A thread about a sensitive topic is not trolling. Particularly when it is presented in a reasonable fasion and with multiple resources and references. If it makes your blood boil, then your own objectivity should be examined - A subject about which people are passionate is certainly not off limits, particularly when it challenges fast-held and unchallenged beliefs.

Last I checked, taking a break from the general forum is allowed - particularly for eating, sleeping, biological duties and other life duties - not to meniton technical difficulties. You will note that time between post 1 and 50 was about twenty minutes. - hardly an eternity.

If you have a bone to pick with me I suggest you get over it - and certainly not pursue it in the general forum, and especially not the moderation forum. Meanwhile, play the game and enjoy.

Since the posts in question appear to have been split by another moderator, this topic can be marked as 'resolved'.
