    Oh my God! A troll? On IRC! that's terrible, terrible news! This is the
    end for Slackware! ...Wait, I've found one too! Guess where! Oh shit,
    I've just fed him!

    I won't feed their egos by naming, but on official Slackware forum (on LinuxQuestions.org (LQ)) he got heavily into a (c)rude flamewar with other posters and was warned and the thread was locked. He broke LQ rules about badwords and personal attacks (it's an all-ages site) so it turns out
    everyone can see I was correct. I've never done that, because manners/ politeness is a key/major part of my culture. Please don't assume that
    people mentioning trolls are trolls themselves--they often aren't.

    old, is for sure a troll, oh your a eternal september poster... say..no..more..

    "[...] You're an [...]", "that's", 'September', and you have some comma splices. It's my thread (I reply to as many years/decades as I want) and that's not what I'm doing. I used Internet before September 1993. People
    who discuss in Slackware areas may want to know about trolls. You say nothing of value, so I recommend don't reply to this thread.

    nah i dont care if it is your thread dickhead, if you troll threads from
    years earlier, your a troll, and yes i too used internet before then,
    back when compuserv was ripping us off at 12 bux an hour on 2400bps coz
    that was latest and greatest, doesnt mean you get any special treatment,
    just means you, like I, are crank old bastards.
