I met my wife online the first time. We chatted about Warren Zevon and a few other things… I subsequently went to a baseball game made up of online users, and there was a woman there getting yelled at by a couple of guys. I went over and told them to back off and be civil, it’s just a fun game. They backed off, and I discovered that the woman in question was the woman I had been chatting with about Zevon. The rest is history.

I am flattered by the amount of time you’ve spent researching the past of a board user. You must have a lot of free time.

I am confused by the concept of ‘trolling’ in the pit. That’s all people in the pit do to other members. I’ve been getting trolled in the pit for years. I can’t imagine a rule like ‘no trolling’ when you are allowed to call people any name you want, accuse them of lying without evidence, pile up on them with mockery… But no trolling!
