So ... I just reviewed my posting history to see what P Ackbar could possibly be complaining about. Maybe I had been too “venomous” in some of my posts ... unwarranted preemptive strikes ... or disproportionately caustic replies to trolling posts ... you know, that sort of thing.
But no. Nothing jumped out at me as being particularly egregious.
What did jump out at me was when this little dust up first began. It appears to have started when I wrote a post denouncing the trolls on this board and urged that the worst offenders be banned ... following the incident when DC-Fraud got caught vandalizing Wikipedia and a couple of our members were booted for an inappropriate reaction to his trolling.
Two individuals really didn’t like that post. P Ackbar and coldenhaulfield. The way they reacted you’d have thought I was threatening their livelihood ... which, in retrospect, now sounds like a pretty apt description.
Ever since then these two have been angrily nipping at my heals.
Most recently, P Ackbar took exception when I observed that people were now just automatically dismissing the extra-dumb trolling posts from certain posters. He really didn’t like that one.
So here we are. At the tail end of a call-out thread by a troll enabler. One of us is fighting the good fight. The other looks like a squid.
