Does anyone here regret getting an implant?

I don't remember that jump in the dissatisfaction column. And i don't imagine how anyone can benefit from rigging that poll, for what? Users are allowed to vote only 1 time.

People who are happy with their implant think the ones who are not happy are "trolls", and vice versa. The truth is anything can happen if you do a surgery, so anyone who does this need to be aware of the risks.

I don’t think people who are unhappy with their implant are trolls. I think *one guy* was engaged in a “concern troll” operation. It’s a game some weird guys play on the internet, it’s a well documented phenomenon. That one guy operated a number of alternative accounts. When that guy disappeared (whether banned or lost interest because he’d been outed, it’s unclear), all the alt accounts shut up, too. The guy did things like make his alt accounts vote for dissatisfaction in the polls, because these guys get off on “concern trolling”, which is pretending to be concerned about people with some affliction (for example, ED), but really just causing discomfort inside the community, in his case by making it seems that getting an implant was a lot more dangerous than it was and led to negative outcomes.

Believe me… it’s silly and stupid, I don’t get it. But it is pretty evident that was what was going on with that one guy.

I'm honestly surprised he hasn't come back with a different account.
I did a pole about 6 months to do with satisfaction, I can't remember the exact numbers now but it was mostly really high satisfaction then all of a sudden there were 5 not satisfied votes in a row. It definitely looked suspicious but I didn't say anything, I'm pretty sure it was him trying to skew the results

Yeah, it was your poll, here is the thread: viewtopic.php?t=26637

You saw the same thing I did, a quick succession of votes against. Honestly, that along with some info I received from a few other brothers convinced me to look a bit closer at what he was doing, which is how I figured out he was running multiple alt accounts.

As for why he never came back: from my research on how this type of troll operates, apparently the whole appeal to them is not getting discovered. The game is how much discord they can sow before people find out they are not actually a member of the afflicted group. Once he decided he had lost here, he likely moved on to bug someone else.
