From: Luke Graham Date: 2005-02-18T10:13:49+09:00 Subject: Re: [EVALUATION] - E01: The Java Failure - May Ruby Helps? This is truly a superior troll. He started well, with a web-site that even described itself as "fictive", got replies to his inane questions (even from me :), prompted interesting discussions about other topics, got goatse AND tubgirl to be posted, claimed to be "closing the thread", which got MORE responses, and now hes drawing people into further discussion, even asking for apologies in a puppy-dog manner. This troll has incorporated all the advanced trolling features refined over the years in the cradles of usenet and slashdot. I take my hat off to you, Sir Troll. I wait with baited breath to find out where you take us next. Its a shame that cross-posting isnt as effective with mailing lists as it is with usenet, you could have tried to get this list arguing with another, as some of your legendary forebears have done.
