To you all.

[Subby]

You know it is bad when you assume each new member is just a TrollBot.

Hi TrollBot.

Sheesh.

I turned on the "Moderate New Users" option this morning, but this accoutn was registered last night in the flurry of Auschwitz, etc...

[Ben E Lou]

oops....my bad on this one....it was registered right in the middle of all of jason k's stuff, but i have compelling evidence now that this guy is legit.

I browsed through a few of the troll posts this morning. As annoying as they can be for moderators, trolls can sometimes be extremely entertaining for the rest of us. Unfortunately, from what I've read this guy doesn't seem to have "it".

So, uh... can someone just let the rest of us know if the guy actually comes up with anything amusing? Thanks.

Compelling? If that is the case then the wave changes from a "Goodbye, SkyDog is About to Ban You Once Again" wave to a "Hello and Welcome to the Forum" wave.

I'm not 100% sure of what the definition of a Troll is, but I'm almost certain I am not one of them. I was just saying hello...

Hi Sun Tzu.

Compelling? Yup. Very compelling. I am now 99.999% percent sure (basically as sure as I can be without being in the same room with both of them while they're posting) that this isn't the same person who has been trolling lately.

Voice: Burn him anyways!

Crowd: Burn him! Burn him!

(No, just kidding, welcome aboard. Take a look at some of the other posts from the past few days and you'll see why folks were suspicious.)

[mckerney]

Yeah, what Maple said (the last part that is). There's just been some stuff recently...

Well, he turned me into a newt! And he's got a wart.

Welcome, Sun Tzu. Your Art of War is revered as a classic. And here I thought you were dead all these years.

It was a pretty good PC game back in the day too, along with Ancient Art of War at Sea.

[Sun Tzu]

My friend David Carusso and I took an extended vacation. But like him, I am now back in the thick of things. I plan to write a follow up to "Art of War" in the coming months. In the meantime you can buy the newly released "Art of War 1.5" as well as "Art of War: Special Edition".

Hi Sun Tzu, Welcome aboard !

:-)

[sachmo71]

People are applying your lessons to the workplace. Doesn't that just piss you off?

[Sun Tzu]

He who uses these teachings to obtain wealth is only doing themselves a great injustice.

[sachmo71]

And he who attacks his coworker at dawn will find himself in jail. *shrug*

[QuikSand]

Sun Tzu, like many transplants from the Eastern cultures, seems to be having some singular/plural problems with contemporary English.

Don't worry, we're here to help. Loved the book, too, have two copies.

"Subby" is fine.

[sachmo71]

It's can't be Subby. He's not from Arizona.

And why would Sun Tzu be in Arizona, anyway? Is it because the hot desert air is good for his mummified skin?

[QuikSand]

Maybe Sun Tzu is the YO PHOENIX MAN guy?

[mckerney]

I read a book once.

[Ragone]

Any Relation to Shih Tzu?

:)

Seriously though, We Gonna start lynching people who sign up?
Could be the exact opposite of the Threadkill... The New User Kill, have the post after one of the new users first couple of posts that results in him/her never posting again..

[daedalus]

Welcome to the board, Sun Tzu. :)

We're usually not this harsh to new folks, just have had a rough couple of days. Hope you stay around.

[Sun Tzu]

The warm welcome is appreciated, thanks everybody. :)
