Bruce and all his froggers have now become Dave Smith?

A little late to the party... LOL

Yes, unfortunately... the first day or two only Bruce was posting under
Dave's name. Like a moron, Bruce flaunted that he's now "invincible"
because his forgers don't want to hide "good 'ole Dave". They promptly
began spamming relentlessly under Dave's name. Bruce is a coward, and a
pathetic one at that.

I didn't flaunt anything. This only lasts while it lasts.

I understand that you don't like me, but I don't spam. Talk to your
friend Greg (but keep some distance, as he's a sinner in your book).

He has had a bit of a melt down. You have to see at least a little
humour in him forging my name. He doesn't like me but he is having a
hissy fit because so many people have filtered him and denied him the
attention he craves.

BB, you use at least a putative surname. Null Bruce is too scared of his
own shadow to even profer a fake one. That makes you & I & Leonard & Dave
an order of magnitude more credible. And anyone who has the guts to put a
real working email address in his headers is even moreso, especially one
that is ISP-based.

We should come up with a consensus vector of credibility coefficients
which can be applied objectively to everyone here in order to put
everyone in order.

It's liberating to not care. Kind of funny that apparently Bruce
continues to respond to me. He ought to take the hint and just ignore
me like Jebus did. I'm certainly not offended, if it works out for both
parties.

His first "melt-down" was not longer after I started here, I'd say April
- May of this past year... maybe as late as June. I wasn't here long
enough to quite process what was going on. Has that ever happened in
years before?

I'm sure that Bruce will post some whiny response about it being his
frogger's fault, a response which I won't see. In anticipation of that,
I'll now state that he is *JUST AS BAD* as the forgers for attempting to
soil Dave Smith's name *JUST* out of spite.

Of course she replies to you. She is thrilled to see that she got some

She has a special hard on for me because was probably the first one to
filter her and pointed out her nymshifting to get past the filters.
Rather than learn how to behave like an adult so that people would take
him seriously he got vindictive and made more enemies. The last time he
pulled this crap he was the one came out smelling like crap.

He still has the opportunity to slink away and perhaps reinventing
himself as a decent human being. Until then, the poor dumb bastard has
to keep on forging the person he hates in order for anyone to see his posts.

I only see the Bruce replies when other people decided to quote them, so
I'm not sure what you are talking about. I do have to glance at them so
I know which to delete and which are your posts, since I go out of my

I don't know if that's true, but I don't mind playing along.

Ladies and gentlemen, Dave "Pickleball" Smith was the first to filter
me and point out my nymshifting. Let's hear if for Pickleball!

I don't like to ignore people, so I hope that he considers your last
paragraph. I can't fathom being somewhere and being particularly
disliked by the majority of the people, yet continuing to dig my hole
deeper. Unless a person is just vindictive, your average person
probably would feel the same way. I would bet that most people would
give him another shot if he disappeared for a couple of months and came
back with a less crappy attitude.

Welcome to Bruce's world. He blames his frogger for his bad reputation
and doesn't understand that it was many his own behaviour.

They might have done so if this was the first and only time he did this.
It isn't. He did it before and apologized for it, but now he has done it
again.

If I hadn't been frogged by 3 different accounts, I wouldn't have had
to do this. If I really wanted to frog you, I wouldn't have added the
signature.

Strange, by the way, that nobody points at Greg. RFC, for all your
double standards.

So you want to punish me and the rest of the group because you have
trouble with someone else and you don't have the computer savvy to deal
with it?? And you think this stupid stunt is going to make people
think better of you?

I filtered you because you saw fit to post a snarky comment to
everything I post, taking cheap shots at me. You sniped at me and
everyone else. I imagine that is why other people did the same. The
last time you melted down and pulled this stunt you turned a lot of
other people against you. The reaction against you this time appears to
be a lot stronger this time, so if you think you redeemed yourself in
anyone's eyes you might want to give your head a shake.

A few people, such as Ed and you, gleefully watched what the trolls
were doing. Suddenly you didn't hate trolls so much anymore. The
famous double standards of RFC :)

But please explain to me how you'd have dealt with the problem. Which
computer savvy trick would you have applied?

Gleefully watched? I don't have a troll remover filter but I do have a
kill filter. You bring it on yourself and nothing we can do.

Because you only care about yourself and damage to others is OK if it
benefits you. This stunt just adds to your frogger's dislike and

Who cares what a frogger thinks? Why do you want me to change my
behaviour to please a bunch of trolls? That's crazy. They're the last
people I care about.

Imagine if Casa Boner would develop a problem with you. Would you
change and become "Ed 2.0, Now Casa Boner Approved"?

You don't have to change your behavior but there are consequences for it.

I've been saying and you have been ignoring, you are the problem. You
are one of the least popular kids in the playground. Mommy can't make
the other kids like you.

Most people just don't like someone that is constantly bashing others

That's fine. That's not a problem.

When are we going to see Ed Pawlowski criticise the frogger trolls? Is

Funny how he's somehow picked your name to forge... twice.
But hey, it's the 'right thing to do', somehow. How's that for fucked

That comment suggests that it is our egos that are are fault. There is
nothing wrong with an ego in a person who is offend by the insulting
sniping that you do.

We have pointed out that it is hard to distinguish between you and your
frogger(s) because they do such a good job of imitating you. They
really affect only the volume of offensive snipes. The fact remains
that I am not going to bother reading your posts when all they consist
primarily of cheap shots at us. It's not particularly amusing to anyone
and it got old a long ago. Grow up a bit and people might take you
seriously.

There you go :) I prefer people who are not as full of themselves as
you are. Your ego has its own zip code.

There's that glee again :)

And I'm not sulking. I keep being attacked for what I'm doing and I
keep explaining myself, unless it becomes too repetitive. That's all.

He is in love with me. He hates me but he must think that I am more
credible that he is. I don't doubt that a number of people have filtered
be because they are offended by me speaking my mind, but I am willing to
bet there are a lot fewer people filtering me than him. He thinks that
it is our egos that have suffered but imagine how his ego has been
crushed to the point that he has to frog me to get past the Bruce
filters. It sad and it's funny.

Exactly. It is what you are doing. You think it is just wonderful but
most others find you offensive, critical.

I disagee there, real Bruce. No need to use Dave's address. Stick with

The troll will find you quickly anyway. No need to drag the real Dave

Everybody was killfiling "Bruce" because of the froggers. Any new name
that I'd choose would get the same fate. The trolls would flood the
newsgroup until everybody had killfiled the new name as well.

People like Dave and Ed loved it. They suddenly loved the trolls. Now
not so much anymore...

That is not an apology to me because the limp wristed asshole is still
doing it. There was no valid excuse for him to do it in the first place.
He keeps blaming other people for frogging him. He is not savvy enough
to deal with whoever that is so he blames us for not condemning someone
who to the best of my knowledge is already filtered. He did it before
and he admitted that it was wrong and apologized. Now he says he is
apologizing for something that he is still doing.

Bullshit. I killfiled you because of you and your constant sniping at
me. Other people filtered you because you were doing the same to them.
You then nymshifted to get past the filters and claimed that you did it
because we had dared to talk about you when we had you filtered.

Loved it? I did give the frogger credit for doing such a good job of
being an asshole I could not tell you apart. I am not sure that saying
that someone is doing a good job of being an asshole is a compliment,
but since that is what you strive for I guess you would see it as one.
