In that thread, @What_Exit did acknowledge the mistake and issued an apology for the screw-up _for the “PC Games…” thread_. For the “Is there a…” thread at issue in _this_ thread, all he said was, > [@Overly-Cornfielding Messages?](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/overly-cornfielding-messages/950940/5): > > Started by a troll and woken by probably the sock of the troll. That one is gone as it mainly attracts trolls and their socks. Which is less an apology to the good faith posters whose posts got inadvertently cornfielded, and more of a dig at anyone who had participated in that thread. Apparently, I’m either a troll, a sock, or not even worth mentioning. And I also find **What\_Exit** ’s characterization of that thread a bit odd. I don’t know about socks, but I don’t recall any trolling. Of course, I may well be misremembering, and maybe that thread was less interesting and more of a trainwreck than I remember it being, but, of course, there’s no way to check now… --- _[View the full topic](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/why-was-is-there-a-bottom-line-to-all-these-sovereign-citizen-cases-thread-closed/950973)._
