On the other hand, he represents something I can't stand: the rank newbie that, upon seeing something he doesn't like barges in and reflexively cries troll, because that's what all the big kids do. And when he's told he's an utter moron who can't understand the difference between a troll and an opinion, he lashes out in rage, not comprehending the fact that he's digging a deeper hole for himself in doing so. And, when he finally is made to understand the situation, what does he do? He tries to educate the moderator on forum etiquette. And does so stupidly, I might add.
I don't know about you, but I think it obvious that anyone could debate this guy to the ground using nothing but the first five letters of the Alphabet.
Yellowtext: Yeah, that was pretty funny.
Bluetext: I don't know about you, but I'm not that great of a debater (nor do I pretend to be). Still, that'd be amusing to see.

You mean he registered here 3 months before me. But I've been visiting here for much longer than I've been registered here. What's stuck up your ass, Durandal?

So has Eleas. He joined ASVS back in 1999, around the time I did. And we were both visiting SD.Net long before then. Now, why are you making such a big deal over this?

Why you young whippersnapper! I was here before the Internet was even founded! Yeah, that's right sonny, when this place was no more than random neurons in Mike's forehead I was here, battling it out with the spermatozoa that would eventually become Timothy Jones! And not with fancy keyboards and monitors like you young pups! No, I had to tap my arguments in morse codes over the radio, and I liked it just fine!
