-Attitudes to '''troll vandalism''' ([[group vandalism]] by [[trolls]] to counter [[sysop vandalism]] or to advance a [[POV]] that they believe is underrepresented by some [[systemic bias]] in [[neutral point of view]]) vary as much as attitudes to [[w:terrorism]] or [[w:insurgent]] activities.
+'''[[WARNING]] This article is linked from [[Strange articles]]. Proceed with caution. '''
-One major question is whether [[sysop vandalism]] is actually '''troll vandalism''' - whether [[sysops are trolls]] or (as claimed in [[New Troll point of view]]) the sysops' use of [[technological escalation]] makes them deserve what they get and denies them the protections that [[trolls]] deserve.
+Attitudes to '''troll vandalism''' ([[group vandalism]] by [[trolls]] to counter [[sysop vandalism]] or to advance a [[POV]] that they believe is underrepresented by some [[systemic bias]] in [[neutral point of view]]) vary much.
-The [[Sysop Vandal point of view]] is that '''troll vandalism''' is just [[group vandalism]] and (of course) that [[sysop]]s cannot be [[vandal]]s simply for opposing it even with [[technological escalation]].  See [[Recyclopedia]] and[[SOLLOG]] for typically controversial cases where this is at issue.

-In the [[SOLLOG]] case, it is not clear if [[wikipediasucks.com]] actually has engaged in [[vandalbot]] design or other [[technological escalation]].  If his then the pro-SOLLOG forces have become their own [[sysop power structure]] and their struggle with the sysops is no longer a [[troll-sysop struggle]] nor a [[troll war]] between those with [[equal power relationship]]s, but rather, a simple [[arms race]] between two groups using [[sysop vandalism]].
+Probably how one views this depends on your [[faction]].
