Ping Robin Lee

Robin, I put your name in the header expecting that a lot of others will
read this too.

"Robert" is a troll <big surprise>. He does not have an issue with you, it
is with the wreck, he chooses popular members or issues to cause a ruckus
then sits back and has a giggle at our expense. His name today is "Robert",
tomorrow - who knows?


What he wants is a lengthy thread to laugh at, that is why he will drag
things out, then when it appears about to die off, he throws in something
new. He is very good at this.

Consider this:

- "Robert" has the archive bit turned off in his posts, check Google,
everyone responding to him seems to be arguing between themselves.

- "Robert" chooses a popular target (yourself), then brands any support as
"groupies" (does the term "miscreants" ring any bells?) and drags them in
too.

- "Robert" will drag in others by accusing other popular or respected
figures eg, the "fire chief" story, dragging the story

- he baits his responses to elicit a reply (bigger threads).

Rob, if not you, it would be someone else. In fact, Charlie Self and Keith
Bohn have been targets of what I suspect is the same person. If not the same
person, then certainly the same techniques.

DFTFT everyone - please.

Doesn't really matter - anonymous trolls are interchangable. Distinction
between them is insignificant. It's not like they're hard to recognize.
Does it really matter if cowardly anonymous troll #1 is the same physical
person as cowardly anonymous troll #2?

I don't think anyone was describing the entity known as "Dave Jackson" as either
anonymous, nor a troll. You are a top-poster, but that can be fixed...

Dust off, and nuke 'em from orbit. It's the only way to be sure.

Wreck regulars (the dumb ones) have absolutely NO self control. You are proof of

Yeah but Rob Lee is a prick, Charlie is a good guy, and I've never heard of
Keith Bohn.

So you will have to point your paranoia in another direction.:)

But hey, thanks for playing.

You never corrected a damned thing.
I'm still waiting for you to produce just ONE day in the last two years when
Canadians weren't paying more than Americans regardless of exchange rate.
You can't do it, so you blather on about your mom and your income tax records.

Come on Rob you must have at least one email from your bean counters in the last
2 years saying: "Attention Robin Lee, it appears that Canadians are almost
getting a fair deal it's time to jack up the price or the Americans might be
unhappy"

Hi Greg -

No worries here... I don't expect that most people put much stock in the
ranting and ravings of anonymous posters. Normally, I don't feed trolls -
but do feel I have to correct mis-information, if only for the few that
haven't pegged the OP for what he/she is.

Cheers -

Rob
