You missed the point. People were calling for the forums to be taken down, and I wrote that I'm going to start asking for them to be taken down, which is ridiculous precisely because I'm a flame-baiting troll. It's called irony; you might want to look it up some time. I am glad you got a laugh, though, since that was my intention in writing it.

RE: self-deluded sack of shit like you

I assure you I'll remember that. You know you don't deal with criminals well. Avoid putting yourself in awkward situations by first refraining from personal insults. You're not up for confrontation on that level.

As to your killfile, this is the first I'm aware of that since I've only used the submit page twice, and haven't in several weeks. I did shout abuse at some people on these boards, so I can't blame you; but it does seem pretty pointless. Killfile people who harrass you, but why killfile someone who just disagrees with some of your readers?

Look, I don't give a fuck about you. All questions herein are rhetorical, and if you've thought for even one second that you have your "first stalker," you need to get over yourself. What you do have is someone who thinks you're a self-deluded sack of shit, with good reason.

1) Actions speak louder than words, and you've taken action. You directly insulted me, today.

2) You've also shown yourself to be naive, gullible, and completely oblivious on many occassions. One of my favorite things about this site is that it's a comedy of errors. "Cory Doctorow: The Blunder Years." In air-conditioned liberally-minded tech conferences, you may be God; but you're a chode the minute you step onto the street.

Like I said, though; it's not my concern who/what you are. That would be about as useful as yelling at the TV. I just come here because you collect some good links, and to have fun at some of your readers' expense.

FYI: I may tell jokes, but I never lie.
