I caught my first troll tonight!

[Redstone]

And it felt good. (Yes, admins have been alerted and emailed.)

See this thread:

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=104x3677037

Then search the OP's prior ten posts. All consist of one or two words.

Nice to be able to contribute to the common good; the trolls are usually gone before I notice them, thanks to the vigilance of so many DUers.

1. The mods did a quick job in LBN a few minutes ago too with some

really fucked up person.

Mods-I salute you!

[Misunderestimator]

2. Huge kudos to the mods this week... BUT... on edit

that one is not banned...

[LynzM]

3. Cool

I don't troll-hunt much, because there are others who really enjoy it and are much more talented. Yay for helping out the common good!

[Redstone]

8. I'll get back to you tomorrow...

when I'm in the office. The sticky keys on this Powerbook (until the new keyboard I ordered gets here) make typing anything longer than this sentence more trouble than it's worth.

23. Ok, cool

I was wondering if I scared you away :P But I think you'd be just a tad harder to weird out than that...

[Longgrain]

4. Ah yes, I've been involved in a couple of Troll hunting expeditions

in my time here.

Always great fun!

5. That is a long fucking post.....

[jukes]

6. holy shit Redstone

Man, sometimes I feel so green.

Thank you

[Redstone]

9. Green? Christ, I've been here for six or seven months, and

that's the first time I've had an opportunity (and the alertness) to nail a troll. I don't feel like that makes me an expert or anything; in fact I feel like a laggard because it's taken me so long.

I'm sure that soon enough you'll be plucking them out like weeds.

Though thanks for the compliment.

7. Good catch, Redstone.

I am against gun control for revolution-oriented reasons, but I respect and understand most of the pro-gun control folks. These half-wit trolls have to be detected early and shown in a bright light. Good work!

:toast:

[RagingInMiami]

11. I'm not going to bother reading through all the crap he posted

But was it simply a matter of him being pro-gun?

[xmas74]

13. Nope.

He was spouting crap, pure and simple. It had nothing to do w/ him being progun. Some of the posters on the thread were progun and they knew exactly what he was up too.

[Wapsie B]

12. Way to go Redstone!

That troll just made it too obvious.

[DS1]

14. It was locked while I typing this

In regards to the 'list'

There's a drinking game. Divvy up that list into strips of paper with one quote, then put them in a hat, whoever can't read the sentence from beginning to end without laughing drinks.
Laughing while someone else is reading = drink.
Laughing at someone else laughing = drink

I'll meet you on the floor in 5 minutes

[Left Is Write]

15. And now it's gone.

[PassingFair]

16. Notice that his name..

is "goatse" spelled backwards. He KNOWS he's an ***hole!

[AntiCoup2K4]

22. Yeah, that's what made me notice the asshole.

Plus his nonsense "padding" posts.

I also notice that they finally stoned one of the most obvious trolls in the history of this board earlier today. Jesus, they could have saved some time with that one. :evilgrin:

[Maddy McCall]

17. I found one this morning, but I forgot to report him.

Maybe I should do that now. He bragged about being a card-carrying member of the VRWC.

[Redstone]

18. What's the VRWC? If I may be so ignorant.

Redstone

[Maddy McCall]

20. Vast Right Wing Conspiracy.

[48pan]

19. Well done!

The fucking trolls should be hanged at sunset.

[Robeson]

21. There were alot today. Especially after that Galloway speech....

...that speech obviously struck a nerve....
