attacking someone who's not even particpating in the thread (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=12061679&postcount=15)... does that fall into Trolling or Flamebaiting?

If it is an attack, I'd have to say Trolling or flaming, as opposed to falmebaiting. Although, if you're popular enough it could be flamebaiting. Iunno, I haven't been on here long enough. :)

I'm missing something here. Where was the attack? Lumping someone's political opinions in with another poster with similar well-known politics isn't an attack, last I checked.

Now, had you mentioned Ikfaldu in the same thread (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=12061918&postcount=39), I'd have agreed that he was flamebaiting. Yours, I don't see.

Ok, I was just checking since I made no post in that thread.

I was planning on replying but didn't want to seem I was encouraging it. but after much thought, all I can say about the post is.. "Meh"

Oh and It wasn't lumping someones POLITICAL opinion, but perceived posting habits/style. *his remark about strawmen for instance.*
