> [@Munch](#): > > There’s a word for that, but we’re not allowed to use it. OK, I can’t think of what word you’re trying to avoid using (email it to me if you like), but I’d call it drive-by posting (unless that’s the word we’re not allowed to use). Most frustrating to me is when the intial post is vague or unclear but the original poster doesn’t return to clarify the question. If I ask a question, either factual or opinion, I try to at least post a thank you to those who replied. ---

> [@CynicalGabe](#): > > I’d just like to say that I sit in awe of how much work must have gone into writing that OP. Surprisingly, very little. I did a search on his username and “threads started by”. I didn’t even have to check the second page of his threads - those are the last 25 threads he’s started. I did make sure he exhibited the same behavior in each of them, as he seems the sort to point to the sole exception to prove his rule. ---

We could try to self-implement a “ralph124c rule.” We could all refuse to post in any thread he starts, as well as refuse to acknowledge any of his posts at all. That wouldn’t be any fun, though. 😉 ---

Honestly I don’t think I ever noticed him before this Pit thread. And the only reason I noticed him is someone commented in an e-mail that he was getting Pitted. And I value this person’s input. So I came to see, and finally noticed him. So much for most popular Doper. :rolleyes: (Hey! A valid reason to use that little guy!) ---

It’s not like you aren’t allowed to say the actual word “troll”. I’m sure the mods are fooled by the way Munch cleverly concealed his accusation. They’ll never catch on to what he meant by “There’s a word for that, but we’re not allowed to use it.” ---
