  1. Troll (Internet) From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia In Internet slang, a troll (/ˈtroʊl/, /ˈtrɒl/) is a person who sows discord on the Internet by starting arguments or upsetting people,[1] by posting inflammatory,[2]extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community (such as a forum, chat room, or blog), either accidentally[3][4] or with the deliberate intent of provoking readers into an emotional response[5] or of otherwise disrupting normal on-topic discussion.[6] Now it would seem ol bigfeller comes on here, The Bigfoot Forums, to talk about what he has been experiencing. You skeptics jump on him and immediately brand him a troll. Who does the definition fit gentleman? Was his story inflammatory? Could it be extraneous or off topic? Was it done accidentally? Or maybe the last one here, provoking readers skeptics into an emotional response? Skeptics seem to be a little more unusually emotional. I'm perfectly willing to go along with bigfeller being full of it, but so far that is not yet the case. He seems to have a story just like the rest.

  2. ^^ You are right, I didn't get out of the truck. I didn't have to- the creature was seated only a few inches from my passenger side door. If you read the thread I would have assumed you knew that. Before I pulled past it, I got a good look at it seated in front of me with my brights on it. I stand 6 feet tall, and looking through my side windows my head is positioned at the middle of the window. That's why I know how big this creature actually was. As far as the Minnesota trackway is concerned, really the only other candidate is a moose. They have enormous hooves and use direct registration and they are tall enough to not leave drag marks in the shin to knee-deep snow. Funny that there haven't been any advocates for a moose in that particular instance- hoax was suggested in a manner to suggest that that was more likely. Why someone would suggest the utterly ridiculous over an actual indigenous candidate is puzzling. We have plenty of rabbits here in the Twin Cities. And we have snow that is a similar depth. I've been living here a long time- you wanna know something you never see? Evidence of rabbits jumping from one spot to another. Never see it. See plenty of rabbit tracks, but they don't jump like that. As I am typing this, there is snow 2 feet deep outside my window. I can see the rabbit tracks too- on top of the snow. Its been a lot colder this year than back in 2012, so if anything they would be far more likely to be 'jumping' to get around this year as opposed to 2012, since there was a lot more melting in 2012 (leaving a hardened crust as the top layer). A rabbit doesn't/didn't need to jump- it could and does travel across the top of the snow. IOW, whatever made the trackway was so heavy and large it sank in with each step.

  3. Riiiiiiight. 3 miles, 3000 tracks, and they all freeze-thaw producing identical length, identical width, 5 toed tracks. Deeper spots, shallower spots, on top of logs, on top of rocks, open ground, under trees. Riiiiiight. I'm attacking the argument ... and this the most ridiculous argument I've heard yet. It doesn't work. I'm not sure what your intent is, but by so strongly supporting the ridiculous, you're improving the case for BF, not undermining it. If you're using reverse psychology, good job!!

  6. No one knows, which is why it's a little silly to do it IMO. But hey, if it's good enough for FB, then it's good enough for everyone else..
