I see he/ she got a DCM for trolling. I don’t think anyone will saturate their pillow over that, but I haven’t seen anything here yet. I thought it was only a sock or spammer who wasn’t acknowledged?

Maybe Twicks has been too busy to post it after locking the threads.

Caught between a rock and a hard place.

We generally only publish “obits” here for people who have been around long enough to be missed. And we do NOT like to publish notices for banished trolls – the whole point of trolling is the craving of attention, and we don’t want to give them encouragement (even by notice of banning.)
