Re: to the newsgroup: My apologies

Look, I've been stalked on the internet by a name-changing freak, and it's been going on for a couple of years. My apologies. All I can say is, when you see an irrelevant thread, it's being cross-posted by this freak to several newsgroups, and it's designed to completely disrupt the newsgroup. Killfile all the names in that thread except for mine.

What, so we can all read YOUR "Am too!...Am not!!" responses to him for six weeks straight?

That was stupid, even for you, Derek. Did you see me posting to the thread? No, you didn't. What you saw was a complete thread about me from another newsgroup, with some nitwit using multiple nyms, and he stalked me here, but I was NOT a participant in it. And YOU just fed that idiot's ego by dissing my explanation. Good job, you eager troll-feeder.

Hey <fweeet!> <waves hand in face> wake up, Al--This is Content Boy, here.
You've lost the ability to tell the difference anymore, and THAT'S what we're trying to twelve-step, here. It's about the "Angry" Buzz, and that's what's making you your own worst enemy.
And as for the header, well...it's ALWAYS the alcoholic who apologizes the morning after.

Every troll, even from your past or not, latches onto you even if they never knew your name before the thread, because you INSIST on fulfilling their fantasies of the short-fused flamewar-partyboy circle-jerk partner who will exchange insults from now till Christmas

Normally, the rest of us here are so troll-jaded, we've seen every unimaginative variety from the wrestling groups, the game groups, the "I'm a foreigner posting unparsable gibberish!" groups, and what have you, that their posts are practically invisible to us nowadays--We longtimers here are smug enough to look at whatever few trolls actually merit as far as killfiling, and half-smile a sadistic smirk of godlike power as we hit that Killfile button...
Ah, another poor soul wiped out of existence. Gives you a feeling like Galactus.

(And in this case, why do I feel a sense of futility of reason here, like Liam Neeson trying to explain "forgiveness" to Ralph Fiennes?)
