I've been lucky. I haven't been attacked by a troll on anything I've posted since I got out of the hospital almost 2 months ago. I hasn't really happened much since the "Hate Rob Club" disbanded and left gather almost a year ago. There were at least 4 members in that as evident by getting 4 Drive By 1's within minutes of when I published an article. Sure sounds like someone needs a good butt whipping to give them an attitude adjustment...so immature.

Rob, I just noticed as I was going through the postings and noticed that there was a sudden surge in 1s. So I know it had to be a member of the cowardly Troll patrol.

Oh no, not them again. Follow me or my comments and I'm sure they will follow close behind...

Notice why I turned off my ratings~because they don't mean a darn thing to me and the ratings were more of a hassle then they were worth.

I would be curious to know who the people are that are getting the db1's though. Juan will you email me and let me know who those unfortunate victims are?? I would imagine that the ones who are getting those are against the big O and that is the repercussion one must pay to disagree on political issues. Uh, oh better run before they start bombing you with those 1's. ;(

Yes, there are some really nasty pieces of work here and you are right - they all seem to be about the Big Overblown.

Esther, as far as I could tell they were just random DBs. I just scrolled down the list of the newest postings and noticed the 1s.

mike, it was nothing personal , just an observation and question. I thought it was a worthwhile subject to discuss.

There are some people I am pretty sure are trolls, but that is because of the nature of their comments. When all someone can do is insult the author of an article or comment, that person is also troll, but at least they are not as cowardly as trolls who utilize the anonymity of drive-by 1 ratings. As for ratings, I don't pay attention to them.
