Re: How to troll
There's so much I could say, but on this one I'd get my self in serious trouble because trolls have been spotted here recently and once you get me started it's not pretty. I hate trolls,
I'll leave it at that.

Re: How to troll
Do you see him often? If so, please say "hi" for me. A few years back there was a potential project that I had mentioned to him where we might have had an opportunity to work together, but it never panned out. So, I never got the chance to meet him.MIDI Life Crisis wrote:...BTW, I just saw Frodo this morning and just as soon he popped on The Ring and was off on another adventure!...

Re: How to troll
I'll see him in about a week I suspect but probably for about 3 minutes and then WHAM! The Ring goes back on and he's off on one of his adventures. Seriously!

Re: How to troll
The OP describes someone I have described as The Most Artfully Embedded Troll On The Interwebz. I even suspect that said troll doesn't even use DP for it's intended purpose, but as a McGuffin for attracting negative attention.

Don't go there, Jim. You're getting dangerously close to reality.

Re: How to troll
I get a bad rap here sometimes (most times) when I take a contrary view to a post. I do find it happens repeatedly with certain members and after I while I just block them. I try to "make nice" after a "debation" and that's when you can separate the wheat from the chaff. Trolls double down and resort to personal attacks. Honest folks who just 'agree to disagree' move on and even become friends. They so make for a great experience online.

Re: How to troll
Hey, I'm not callin' any names, and I'm for sure not calling MLC an OP. We're A-OK, no?
No reality, neither. We now return you to "State Of Denial," already in progress.

Man, you guys really get to travel. I've only been to about 42 states and a few countries. Always wanted to see the state of denial.
