I resent that! I have been in the Special Olympics for years on the ski team. I have known many of the athletes who participate in the events and I can assure you that most are smarter than you think! Also, the term is either Mentally Challeged or Developmentally Disabled.

Watch The Ringer, and I guarantee you will see things in a new light.

I do agree with you on the first thing you said, insult one of us and you insult all of us!

I'm physically challanged not mentally challanged.

To pheonixrose, I wish some people had the restraint to bite back hurtful things but some are seriously lacking an abundence of schooling!

JOSSIS(Most Definitely)AGOD

Sorry you came under my flame LucasHarper, but I'm in a really defensive mood this week.

I appreciate your defending of my honor.
He called me a whore in the FORSAKEN thread, too. Guy's not all that creative.
Plus, the term is Companion.
heeheehee

Hmmm. did you know that "companion" in the Bible means "wife"? Learned that from "The Da Vinci Code" which I saw yesterday, though the movie over all was a bit of a yawner for me -- see

Couldn't finish your filk, but came up with this one.

He's a troll
Can we boot him?
Imagination,
He does lack.
He's a troll
Can we boot him?
Open the bay hatch
Out into the black.
He's a troll,
He's a backbirth,
He's a hwoon-dahn,
He's a twit.
He's a troll
Can we boot him?
Use the troll-flinger
Toss him with his backside lit.
You can always tell
When his mommy's gone.
Gives good folks
Plenty of trouble.
I guess he's just a
Shee-niou pawn
And we wish the he were
on Hubble.
He's a troll
Can we boot him?
And there's nothing
More to say
Than he's a troll,
Can we boot him,
And I wish that he
Could be on his way.

(Sung to 'He's a Tramp')

Thanks, 13. While I'm glad you like it, I'm sorry things aren't so good at those times.

I just get all types of annoyed when tiny minds like that come in here insultin' folks. I know we're not suppose to feed the trolls, and have probably, like Bunts the dog, lost my good conduct medal, albeit for a completely different reason.

Perfect. Wonderful.
The only bad thing about this is that whenever I think "Troll-Flinger" I use my best Shirley Bassey thinking voice so it comes belting out like "Goldfinger."
But then I can't think of any more words from which to put together a nice song.

I also learned that from the Da Vinci Code - the book. It technically means "spouse" if I remember correctly. That struck me the first time I watched Firefly and heard "The term is Companion." I wondered if there was any hidden meaning there. Knowing Joss, I bet there was.

May have been the losing side. Still not convinced it was the wrong one.

I thought we did have one moderator at least. I know someone had been moving threads to Troll Country and all. I can't remember who the 'coat was that was made moderator.

This troll sounds like a real loser, and one who definitely deserves having their IP blocked.

IP blocking may not work. Sadly enough.

The problem with blocking an IP is that unless the person leaves their computer on and connected to the internet 100% of the time, they won't always necessarily connect with the same IP. The ISPs have a block of IP addresses. Then, every time a customer wants to connect, they let that customer use whatever IP address is next in their rotation. It costs the ISPs less to lease blocks of IPs and assign them dynamically than it does to allow customers to have dedicated IPs. I believe that ARIN also tries to discourage the dedicated-IP model, since there's only so many IP addresses under the current protocol (four blocks of three digits). Trying to change that protocol would cause more noise than telephone area codes splitting, or customers suddenly being forced to dial ten digits even in their own area code.

Aren't there a few others? I thought there were a couple. Most sites like this should have at least... Well, way more than one, anyway. One person could never keep up with all this!

I haven't heard about anyone else, just Haken, which is why requests for special avitars, etc. can take a bit of time. Since he's the one who created the entire site, if there's a way just to excise the trollish one from the threads, he'd be the one to do it.

Unfortunately, we need to keep in mind that it may constitute too much time-consuming work, and as you've pointed out, this site requires a lot of work to keep things going for us. This time issue may be why the current policy is moving the whole thread to Troll Country, which is a bit better than the entire thread heading off to the 'Special Hell.'
