39. An academic I know analyzed political forum postings for IQ level of the writing.
They scored almost 30 points below DU, one of the lowest on the web.

48. Where the hell else are they going to find facts?
Be nice, folks. Reading things from outside the bubble is a good first step toward responsible citizenship.
They are not our enemies so much as they are fellow victims.
Spoken from $kinner's echo chamber. Let's savor the irony like a fine wine, shall we?

50. Hear, hear!
I have always taken that approach with them. They banned me anyway.

We don't mind guests, even the ones that crawl from the sewer, as long as they don't shit on the table and drag their asses across the carpet. You came in here and acted like a punk, Alan, and were thusly shown the door.
One would think a
juris doctorate from Georgia would have better manners that normally come with a Deep South upbringing.

While the characterization did make me genuinely laugh out loud, their obsessive stalking of DU is unbelievably creepy. Don't any of them have lives of their own? What would Sigmund Freud say? And the fact that some of them have made a point of amassing "dossiers" on individual DUers actually makes them dangerous -- truly, as some here have been harmed in real life.
In a way, I'm surprised this thread is still open. DU used to make a point of not mentioning them by name, in order to deny them hits on the google. But you have to admit that batting trolls around can be fun.
I love you paranoid freaks, I really do. I know it's been stated many times, but none of us really give enough of a shit about any of you other than to point and laugh. However, if you're stupid enough to brag on an open forum about how you've sabotaged your employer, well, you get what you deserve.
I do agree that batting trolls around is fun; ask pedophile pretzel warrior how that is going.
I would like to point out that if you have trolls on your site, your MIRT Thoughtcrime Squad is not doing their job.

I troll over there and have already posted on the tread about this thread. No one even suspects me of being a troll, and I've been registered over there for a long time now. I just dumb down my writing a lot and use typos to hide my true intelligence.
See if you can tell who posted their post in this thread over there. Hint, low IQ and low post count here.
No, DUmmie, you don't. Trolling is easy, moling is an art.
