Speaking as one who has been accused in the past has anyone ever considered that people who are labelled 'trolls' might have a low post count because they get duffed up whenever they express an opinion that goes against the tide?

Have I got enough posts to be allowed to be ornery now btw?

Thank God! It's so frustrating when we're trying to have a nice conversation about how terrible everything is in the comics world today, and how everyone in charge of the companies is doing everything wrong, and suddenly there's some unscripted drama as people's "personalities" interact in unpredictable ways! 

Leave the human element at home, folks - this place ain't called "Byrne Robotics" for nuthin', I'd wager!

The only unpredictability I like is not knowing if a thread I've been following with interest will be suddenly wiped from the record, with no chance to ever refer back to it, because the wrong person said the wrong thing at the wrong time - got to admit I love this idea - it's like combining comic book talk with Russian Roulette - the added element of uncertainty intrigues me! 

Some boards just lock threads that have gotten too heated, but that's an inferior solution sometimes the wrong people make some pretty good points or strike too close to home - locking a thread like that does nothing to erase the stain of an ugly or inconvenient point of view being shared!

I felt I needed something that was more reflective of myself and my social mores.  Of course, the Dock-TORR must still die.

Nice to see you back.

Thank you.

My pc was comprehensively fubar necessitating an upgrade - even my sonic screwdriver couldn't save it this time - oops! what a give away!

So what's IN a sonic screwdriver anyway? Orange juice, vodka, and ...what?
