    Yes, relatively.

      What this thread is failing to take into account is that kandr is trying to get to the lowest possible reputation rating. I suppose there's an outside chance that he's just a pillock, but there seems to be an aura of deliberate trolling.

      I'm with Falstaff on this one. "Discretion is the better part of valour, for which better part I am still alive".

      If you are attacked, the first priority is to get away from danger as soon as possible. If that means legging it immediately, then so be it. If the only way I get myself out of danger is to flatten my opponent, then I'll do my best to do that, and then run away.

      If the attacker thinks that I'm a coward, then that's his problem - I don't get my sense of self worth from lowlifes who pick fights. I've been in potentially violent situations. I've always managed to talk my way out of it, and then made myself scarce as quickly as possible.

        I am glad I have low rep, its a compliment considering the people that post here, excluding a few.

        So I have a different opinion, how is that trolling?

                That's not trolling. That's just abuse, albeit fairly witty and erudite (considering).

                Trolling is posting stuff that's likely to produce a heated response from other posters.
