Where are all the Trolls?
 
What's happened to all the grumpy, argumentative, antagonistic ranters that used to stalk this site? When I first joined back in 2010 you had to be pretty brave to have an opinion. As soon as a stupid or controversial comment was posted you could rely on the Ultrarunners and El Dulci's of this world to make it even more controversial!

Where are they now? Who do you think has been the most antagonistic poster of all time? What was the worst thing you can remember being posted by them?

Oh you little agent provocateur you. Well done. Let me get my chips and dips and settle in for some entertainment.

He was the poster that just kept giving. I wish there was a "most wanted/hated" top ten thing.

I wish I could remember El Dulci's real name/tag....
Some of his posts were fantastic!

UR was/is some crazed Combat 17 type who would pick a rather badly rationalised argument with St Peter given half a chance. Great value....

Dulcius Ex Asperis? Yes, he was quite good value. UR was more annoying but less eloquent, so I think Dulcius wins.

Other wind-up merchants that spring to mind include OceanMDX - he and I didn't overlap by very long, but in much the same way as UR does now, his legend lived on for quite a while. But ISTR he was more of a tedious knob than a troll.

Couldn't take the heat of the end-of-year polls though.
