  1. Who modded this a "troll"? by MillionthMonkey · · Score: 1, Troll

    Ah, what the heck. I think I'll post this with my +1. I honestly don't know if this will hit 5 Insightful or -1 Troll but I bet it will be one of the two.

    You didn't do it right. You have to say "I'm going to be modded down for this" to get to 5. If you say "I know I'm going to be modded up or modded down" then you get modded down, because you're presenting a choice to the feeble-minded moderator instead of a clear reverse psychology directive. Moderators need to be told which way not to mod your post.
