Who was the worst troll on this site?

Don’t let him cause you to have a bad day, big guy. We all know how that could end.

december lasted a long, long, long time.

More recently there was wossname with the climate change denial obsession. Trolled like a mofo but at least he kept it all in one giant thread. I’ve forgotten the name but **GIGObuster **probably still has PTSD about him.

What? No love for The Dio Show yet? (I never did know how to pronounce his name, even in my head, but he was a cynical bastard.)

I have a vague recollection of a thread about cow mutilation that got weird, too.

It’s been a while, and I may be confusing screennames with the names they used on the Fathom board back when I was modding there. But I can’t help recalling Johnsbury and DrWatson.

Diogenes? He wasn’t a troll. He was just a tad overexcitable. By which I mean that at the drop of a hat he’d hop onto the first bus to Crazytown.

But not a troll.

Really, among recent history, no one was as worst as pedophile-defending, “women were ok with sexual harrassment in the 1960’s, so the rise in sexual harrassment complaints lies with today’s women, who just aren’t built the way they’re supposed to beSharting Fartist, a poster so despicable I argued that, viewing this Board as a business, the SDMB couldn’t afford to keep him around.

The short days and stress over xmas makes it seem that way every year.

I nominate MattBernst and PerkyDan. Someone’s gotta be the institutional memory around here!

Back during my first stint as a moderator, there was a repeat sock puppet who would just not give up. Like, it once registered 26 names in a row, one for every letter of the alphabet, as quickly as the board would let it. I don’t think that any of its names lasted long enough for non-moderators (who wouldn’t have known it was all the same person) to remember it, though.

You mean that fucked-in-the-head Mastermind? He was warned to keep all that shit confined to one thread.

It’s a real shame that the imgur link to his “proof” doesn’t work anymore, it was total genius and I have total respect to him for putting it up there.

I got over it when he came crying to the Giraffe Boards and I was a mod there. :slight_smile:

But really, I did not get involved in any moderator discussions nor was I who put him in The Box. His trolling was noticed with no input from me, and for me the best revenge is when others do notice right away what a jerkoff he was/is.

You can still see it. Mithras helpfully preserved it for us here:

That is absolutely brilliant, and every bit as awful as I remembered. Thank you!

I never minded asahi that much before. My opinion of him has plummeted with his participation in the recent thread whereupon poster Huey Freeman was pitted. He’s a prolific, vapid nuisance who will take vile, beyond the pale stances just for attention.

Read only this page.

All of’em way before my time, but saw snippets of, in older threads.

What was the deal with Evil Captor?

Or that self-incriminating p.o.s. Rosario?

Pseudotriton Ruber Ruber or whatever the sod’s name was seemed quite the inward shlub.

And that useless dingleberry Scylla

Will Farnaby seems to be gearing up to take the lead now. He simply repeats right-wing talking points and refuses to engage in any kind of actual discourse.

Wut?

Saw a buncha jerkish posts a month or two back from him with moronic defenses of all shit (R.) Some in particular (I’m not gonna go trawling for them now) verged on disingenuousness.

Scylla is the Dan Simmons of the SDMB. We read his old stuff with love and affection and kinda ignore what’s happening now.
