Trolls and Registration

Oh, for God’s sake, Chronos. When someone offers you a BJ, do you say " actually, the idea is to suck."?;);):wink:

Great post Nemo, it’s like some kind of civilized pit post or something. 9.5 ( 2.4 from the troll judge )

Thanks, weirddave. I didn’t want to be rude, so I went back over my first draft and took out the really offensive stuff. I’m glad to see it didn’t lose its edge.

And Chronos, I agree that Junior may not fit the literal definition of a hacker. But by the same token, he also is not literally an bodily orifice for excreting feces but I’m sure none of us would hesitate to call him an asshole.

I’ve just realized that part of the reason there are so many trolls is because it’s so easy to sign up. Well, now that congress recently passed the internet signature bill, documents signed online are legally binding and a breach of a signed document is like perjury. Well, couldn’t the registration process include something like this so the Admins could press charges if they find people breaking agreements?

I know it’s far-fetched and kinda extreme, but I just thought I’d bring this up.

No. Your name will become the focus of a troll post 60 days from now and 120 days from now and 365 days from now. Trolls have web-based calendars these days, same a other folk. Why? Because they are the other folk on the board. There is no troll without another “conventional” identity. What would be the point in that?

Well, why wait? Check out this:
