You are confusing trolls with mods. It’s a “cornfield of trolls” and a “banned of trolls”.

And speaking of trolls, we have another trolling post from **sjank…** , this time about the post office stealing packages. Not enough to cornfield, yet?

I figured that the cornfield was where the mods went when they weren’t on the boards, to gloat over their conquests.

Maybe it was because of the two links to the online store, but I don’t think that poster has a habit of doing this.

Ok, that one made me laugh. Plus, now I think of the trolls’ posts being suspended in transparent plastic.

Ahem. A resurrection for _Did anyone actually believe a camera could steal their soul?_ over in Factual Questions.

I mean…uh…our new poster could be for real. I guess?

So they predicted 9/11? Is David Mabus rubbing off on our mods? Do you desperately wish I hadn’t put that image in your heads?

In the Boebert thread in P&E, someone mentioned how Republicans like LB are pushing anti-trans policies (even though trans folks don’t harm kids) while simultaneously pushing anti-sex ed policies (which do harm kids) all in the name of protecting kids.

Well, saying “trans” in a thread must be like saying Beetlejuice three times, because **YWTF** is now in there tut-tutting everyone for judging LB by her statements and her actions, and is basically all over the map in that thread.

The sake of rules aside, I always liked the Mother Night approach - it doesn’t really matter if one is ‘really’ a troll or not, we are who we pretend to be

Yep. Ruined a perfectly good P&E thread.

Doesn’t she have a topic ban about this?

The impression I had was she’s been dancing around the ban.
