    I'm impressed that you're such an avid collector of Yankee-isms. You could have a party there in troll hollow for all my followers.

    Here's the thing, sparky: same old troll posts get the same responses.
    "You got leads. You can't close the leads you're given you can't close shiite. You ARE shiite. Hit the bricks, pal, and beat it 'cause you are going OUT."
    Props to Alec Baldwin.

    In other words, get original, maybe try posting a video like my barn troll chucka-boo-boo. Put your balaclava on backwards & spew invectives, I dunno, maybe join the Butthurt Newbs as backup singer.

    Now go pour another glass of rotgut & research all of my posts until you can file your overdue book report in class on Monday.

    Telling me I can't tell people to kill themselves is like telling me I have to use condoms or like telling you're wife to stop blowing the rest of the forum behind Waffle House. Go kill your self. And post a hello threade.

    Really Yankee, there is no butt hurt here and this is not an attempt to troll you. I don't really understand how everyone that butts heads with you automatically becomes "obsessed" in your mind. It's actually the opposite.

    Maybe I'm wrong, maybe people troll you because they know what response you will give them.

    At the end of the day I am tired of one or the other... either people trolling you, or your lackluster response.

    Well, it does get a bit slow around here without GitCarter policing the waynes, gnomes, sadbrads, bradshiiiteds & assorted nefarious wombats.

    I kid.

    I was reading this tread when all of a sudden twat dog does his passive aggro routine. Why include me? Some of you guys need to look at & own your posts or not put them up.

    Seems to me that the biggest source of whining & sniveling to the mods / Austine are the guys who troll, with their passive aggro stuff, as well as with their name-calling & telling people to fark off.

    Like you did with your unsolicited troll post to me, tractor.

    If I reciprocate, in kind, i.e., telling you to go smoke your daddy's pole or something as simple as 'fark off' just as you launched on me, all of a sudden who gets the infarction??

    So, I don't think too much of more mod big brother stuff. Just be accountable for your actions. You want to do sand reconne with the older boyz, sure, step to it; just don't go crying about getting your shiiite tossed into the water.

    Damn right U2B!!! Preach my man.

    Austin I think Yankee nailed it. You need to send every new member his statement:

    "You want to do sand reconne with the older boyz, sure, step to it; just don't go crying about getting your shiiite tossed into the water."

    thats why i like the idea of forcing new member to only the surf related threads. Trolls arent going to spend the waiting period (make it like 3 months) to get to the discussion forum to spew their agendas. It will also be cool to add logic so that a newb tries to access that forume he/she gets redirected to the msw forumes

    I am going to be putting together a welcome email explaining that we are a contrarian community that allow some amount of trolling. As previously stated we're on a unique version of the forum software so I don't know if it will work but I'm going to try.

    I think that would cut back on a lot of the butt hurt emails I've been getting.

    Austine, I respect your diligence. Hope this place doesn't turn you into burnt toast.

    And, hope you negotiated a pact with those darkhat masters of SI that they pay for your surf lessons at NLand Texas wave pool.

    Sending out some nancy e-mail letting people know how much the community cares about keeping things in moderation, and how the admins care about their expectations will quintuple the number of e-mails you get from people who inevitable get butthurt.

    Posting those e-mails, along with addys and screen names MIGHT reduce the number you get. So yeah, that.

    Hi scotty.

    Austin, how many butt hurt emails do you get? God I would love to read some of those.
