I can't believe you argued with that either. Someone obviously just wanting to troll.

I did like this line in response to the true reason for the kill screen though:

oh so I guess whatever you make up about computer programing is more creditable than what a future navy Seal says? Yeah right.

I argued for the pure comedy. After the way she started arguing, I had to see what else she could come up with. In another thread, she threatened to have her alleged boyfriend come beat me up when he got back.

She even said for me to post where I live so he come get me, so I posted the address of someone with the exact same name in the same state. :)

Threats on the internet are so laughable. I seem to really be bringing out the psychos lately. (And despite what you may have heard, they don't explode in sunlight, no matter how crazy they are.)

Didn't even have to do that. Way too many people have no idea how to verify any information they see. I've college I wrote a program that culled real addresses from a database (eg a sports stadium) and generated fake credit card numbers for hitting back at phishers. Hell, there's even a website dedicated to generating, not only fake addresses, but fake names, emails, websites, S.S.#, phone numbers, tracking numbers, the whole gambit. And not a single ---tallywhacker--- I've ever presented the information to ever double checked it.

Your name means 'don't find here, look elsewhere', or, much easier and more probable, take your name and play internet games with it. Then it's a crapshoot perhaps but still dangerous. That idea of yours just seems weird to me, but hey. Anyways, instead of arguing, I'd be asking some questions to find out about this phenomenon. Never know, life can be stranger than fiction.

One year, but that's beside the point....

The kill screen isn't something that only came about in that movie.

I know you're a huge supporter of the cause (trolling), but we actually like your way of going about it. If only every troll was as tolerable as you...

(Guess you're not doing a good enough job, then.)  ;)

You can tell where I just got silly in that thread and quit arguing the points (futile) and just attacked her. ;D

Since I somehow made up every page about kill screens within an hour, just so I could show her my so-called evidence....

Jeez....

I don't troll, I just have obnoxious opinions and don't apologize for them.  People simply mistake that as trolling.

Nothing wrong with that. Brings some variety to the average topic.

Because I said I didn't want to draw attention to it, yet wound up drawing more attention to it. Since I can't delete the thread, I just deleted my original post.

Added the link back.

The topic has been broached in the past and the consensus was that people who abused it would have the ability removed.  Not sure this one qualifies as abuse since the references removed were someplace else.

When I started this thread, I thought I'd just point out how stupid the troll was (and how stupid I was to argue with her), then I thought she didn't deserve the attention, now I'm not even sure if she's a troll or if she really is out for attention (by viewing her post history in other topics). I just wanted the topic to go away, but the harder you try to keep attention off a thread, the more it draws :D

I'm 99% sure that Saint can taken the ability to edit posts away from individual users.  I'm pretty sure it's happened already.

And I'm not saying GV deserves that at all either.  Just pointing out what I think Saint can do.

You can put in requests to the mods to either delete your thread or lock it. If you have a good reason, then they would probably meet your request.

I'm aware, but this thread wasn't deserving of such a request. If someone finds the troll stuff funny, then that's great. I'm sure most people have had enough of this sort of crap online, though. Internet anonymity makes people say and do a lot of stupid things.

Typically I only use MODIFY to correct mistakes or add information. There is the occasional retraction (I'm sure you've seen plenty of times where I remove a wrong answer I've given and call myself out on it)

Listen to SithMaster, my fraternity figured out to get past the hole. Once you get to the "bottom" the hole repeats over and over again. I could have gotten out 3 million (a guy in the Sigma Chi house did) but I was so bored I couldn't take it anyore.
