Carol Stream would want this and only this reply to this announcement… :Squee!!!: ---

And nothing of value was lost. Good riddence, I say. She was a troll from the get go. I’m surprised she lasted as long as she did. Kudos to TPTB to finally seeing/realizing it. ---

> [@Fenris](#): > > And, yes. I’m aware that someone will be along to piously whine that they personally find it unseemly to mock someone who isn’t here. Let me preempt that with a hearty “So? Who gives a fuck?” I would, but that would be Junior Moderating, one of the things Carol Stream got in trouble for. Oh, and because, while I don’t want to say anything bad about **her** , I do think the decision was the right one. ---

**Carol Stream** has also mentioned having a husband. I think s/he kind of dropped hints of either gender and enjoyed the confusion. ---

Surely there can’t be anything wrong with commending the moderators for their saintly tolerance and forbearance against appalling provocation? ---

> [@Talon\_Karrde](#): > > **Carol Stream** has also mentioned having a husband. I think s/he kind of dropped hints of either gender and enjoyed the confusion. She was a troll from the beginning, so it’s not that hard to believe she would do that. Also, is it just me or when someone gets banned, do you keep a close eye on the “newest member” thingy down at the bottom to see if they try to sneak back in under a thinly veiled alias? Or have I just been hanging out in too many dumb ass forums where trolls create a new account with the words in their name reversed or a new variation of their old name like “Carol Lake”? ---
