[QUOTE=WhyNot]  
Then again, is a sock a troll? Does the allowance of troll also allow sock? I’m not sure. Guess I have to read the sticky.  
[/QUOTE]  
Well, that’s the thing; according to the sticky, it’s okay to insult someone by saying they’re a sock, but if you can prove it, you’re supposed to take to to the mods so the ban stick can be deployed.

Or something like that.

Well, now that I’ve wrecked my joke, I’m going to go have a nice refresher on your linked sticky myself. Hope you don’t mind me reading over your shoulder.

I thought that perhaps the people I would like to meet would be interested in someone reading a book under a tree.

Ah, so you read a book under a tree in hopes that someone interested in talking to you will talk to you, and then you bitch when someone does?
