I think the folks here have spoken clearly as to who the two
trolls are. Alex doesn't want to deal with the post limit and I
can't blame him. This is supposed to be a forum for adults not
teenagers. Salvy is right, the graffiti trolls are just trying to
ruin FFL because they hate the place.

Wow! Now that's a thought-stopper. Calling someone a "troll" makes
assumptions about a writer's motives that are impossible to
determine. The term troll is highly subjective, and some posts
will look like trolling to some while seeming like meaningful
contributions to others.

Imagine what this place would be like without any TMers - who would the

Posting limits function as a moderator, in a sense, and are
equitable, because after all, one person's troll is another's
fantasy and who on this forum is qualified to make that
decision? I like the idea of posting limits for this forum and
always did, but, of course, certainly wouldn't want to be hall
monitor myself. So, to the degree that I check in here, I
choose to live with the consequences of "forum freedom."

Postinglimits are stupid but moderation is not. The trolls
would have been booted long ago if someone weren't afraid to
moderate just a little bit. Most other group moderators do
this. Rick even suggested that Richard needs a hobby. Best
policy currently is to ignore the trolls and especially don't
reply to them. Then they'll return to the bridges they live under.

Yep. Interesting what has happened. The limits were
removed. Almost immediately, Richard and Share ushered the
forum into its evolution as a chat room - characterized as
all are by a preponderence of meaningless drivel. Gone are
the limits telling the brain to put some thought into a
post, put some thought into topics, put some thought into
with who and in what format one wanted to converse. Limits
that forced a pause in the action. Quite the statement
this forum is, really.

He has been on vacation. But FFL seems to have gone
mostly to fluff lately, with a lot of short spammy
twinkie brain posts so there is not much to read here
any more, no discussions of any substance...

You are supposed to read the messages here BEFORE you
post your own comments, Ajax. I thought my replies to
Bill were right on topic, compared to the comments
posted by the other informants. YMMV. Go figure.

I have not really followed FFL regularly for a while.
Is Barry (turq) on vacation or did he say goodbye to
FFL? I miss his posts.
