If you’re saying he’s utterly predictable in his clumsy and oafish MO, you’re right. If you’re saying he would restrict himself to one JAQ-off, you are quite unfoundedly optimistic.

Whatever a troll like that lacks in intellect or creativity, they more than compensate for with tenacity.

Nope. Just a few days ago:

Hopefully that breaks the link (space between “http” and “s”).

It’s a real face-palm of a hijack. So bad I put him on permignore.

That was only a 6 month zombie but a zombie nonetheless and just as ridiculous. I don’t see this poster being around much longer.

It’s only a one-day suspension, though.

And you’ve left a live link from that thread to this one, so you’ve probably summoned the troll here when they get back. So nice work.

It’s like we’re trying to keep him interested and encourage his antics.

Why yes! So his troll ass will be banned more quickly instead of allowing him to slow roll the board with his bullshit.

Sam posts good stuff now and then and I give him credit when he does.

It’s when he lies and misrepresents cites and other posters that folks get upset. For some reason.

The “unwilling or unable to change their ways” seems bloody obvious at this point, if you don’t mind me saying.
