Son, we might take you seriously if you start posting links to some *real* photography. In the meantime, we'll just keep on laughing at you. -- W . | ,. w , "Some people are alive only because \|/ \|/ it is illegal to kill them."

All righty, then. Yes, he's reached foam again. BUT: How 'bout all of us taking a breather on this toad? By not replying to any of his posts; by not talking any more about him- for one month.

Staying quiet while watching one of these guys bully a newbie is often more than I can put up with, and it seems to have gotten worse in the last several months. -- Mike Russell - http://www.curvemeister.com

At long last, I will no longer have to be dragged into their pretend-photographer trolls' world, by having to incessantly correct their ignorant and inexperienced spewage of misinformation. I'll be able to state the facts without wasting my time refuting their invented nonsense about cameras and photography. Nice of you to have a list of all your fellow resident-trolls' names though, however you left off about 7 other well known resident-trolls. That short list should however help naive newcomers weed out some of you more easily. Did you not know that Bob Larter, a.k.a. real name Lionel Lauer is a well known troll on the internet? Even has his own dedicated newsgroup for it. Nice of you to list him as one of your "friends". Guess what that makes all of you? Google for Lionel Lauer, watch the thousands of hits and all the damage he has done to every forum and news-group he's ever been in with all the various aliases he uses. Follow-up set so the net monitors can more easily keep track of you trolls. |
