2. I know!
I wish we had a troll museum where we could stroll at leisure and post snippy comments that they can't respond to.

What fun!!

4. What is worse
Is typing out a long, thought out post, and then not being able to post it because the thread got locked.

7. Sometimes
I propose that instead of deleting such threads, we put some of the dumber troll threads into a kind of "Hall of Shame" for us to laugh at... there are also those trolls who leave arguments I'd want to address, preferably before they got banned (although DU and FR aren't exactly cross-ideological debating platforms, I concede)...

9. If you're talking about pigkiller - you didn't miss much
I wish that trollers would bring some good debate topics instead of "This thread is so lame" or "Kerry's lame" or "You're lame." Well, the last one would be "Your lame" if pigkiller typed it.

14. Fortunately, it's pretty easy to tell, since most liberals are at the very
least modestly intelligent. :D

11. Even worse...
Don't you hate it when you hear about a troll only after he's eaten 15 of your neighbors and ground their bones into flour? Or is that ogres?

16. YES!
i always wanna see stuff i am not supposed to see. to that end, i am excellent at reading upside-down shit. like on the boss's desk. trolls are entertaining. shouldn't fight them...laugh at them-that is the best messin' with you can give'em...they want a reaction...

a couple weeks ago, someone got pissed at something i said or me or something-i guess i'll never know, because a mod took it off. goddamnit-that was meant for me to see. i don't give a shit what someone i don't know says about me, in that i get upset...i'dve liked it left up there, AS AN EXAMPLE OF THE KIND OF PERSON THEY ARE. if someone calls me a name, pfffft! it's not a reflection on me. it points out, among other things that they are unable to engage in intellegent discourse on a serious subject.
