On the other hand, if you've really been lurking here since 2000, then you know the signs of trolldom, and you should understand that some folks are sensitive to the signs (perhaps too sensitive).
And perhaps you're just too thin-skinned. This is a pretty free-speaking crowd. You're seeing the difference between pain-free lurking, and the jabs you endure by jumping into the pile. The sparring is different when it's directed at you.
So thicken your skin, don your asbestos undies, and have fun.
