Re: Where are all the Trolls?
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.

Yes! He was the guy! Great fun. I really looked forward to his posts. He made me want to get up in the morning....

Re: Where are all the Trolls?
But the funniest troll was IMHO bazz, who made Oink look kind and gentle in comparison.
I remember being fairly convinced that they were one and the same when Oink appeared shortly after bazz left. I was wrong though, bazz was much better at it.

Re: Where are all the Trolls?
This is a thread started by Bazzz:
If I have offended you...
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
...then I am truly sorry. I've just had a message from some guy called Ray, and apparently I've upset some people on this site. And there was some vague threat about a vacation.
So, if I've hurt your feelings, please use this thread to tell me about it so I can personally and publicly apologise to you. And if I haven't offended you and you're feeling left out, then tell me something about your personal defects and I'll do my best to insult you.

Re: 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?

So many craptastic posters to pick from its hard to single out only one.
Mickj and his tens of aliases and sock puppets was a particularly annoying one that springs to mind, but we got quite good at spotting him. Long before most people heres time I suspect.
I miss Butch Cassisdy, cant remember now if he left or was banned (I suspect the latter)... and that Fledermaus, she could get really chippy... like a terrier with a rat. Whatever happened to her I wonder

Re: Where are all the Trolls?
There was a poster on here months ago who was called "The (something) Family" I think. She ended up claiming they got PR in 3 or 4 months, having been told by everyone that they'd be unlikely to get it at all. I'm sure it was all bullsh*t but it made for lively exchanges at the time. With I could remember her posting name. I'd like to go back and read some of her posts again.

Mind you - that Novo, after a glass or two of vino collapso, he can be pretty rough on the newbies.
