I have a question slightly off subject.
The poster, "MrLeRoy" has been banned. Recently a poster named, "No King but Jesus" has suddenly started posting in almost the same exact style and manner as did MrLeRoy.
Many of us in FR think that the two posters are one in the same. In that No King but Jesus has not been banned as were some of LeRoy's other incarnations, most notably, "The Coach" or something to that effect, are we to take it that No King but Jesus is not just another incarnation of LeRoy?
Thanks, APJ

Not the same guy as MrLeRoy. Neither was The Coach.

I haven't reached any hard-and-fast conclusions about why this idiot is doing all this; just thought people here should know about it. Great job. Exposing the trolls is always useful.

If Jim charged 1$ for everytime a phoney conservative posted the above or some version of it, we would never have to have a Freepathon again. I'd bet we could also have Freepfare and FReemedicine too.

To have FreepFare and FreepMedicine, Jim would have to charge $5/for every post/reply saying, "GW has done it now! I will never vote for him again!"

Well I've been accused of being a troll because I dare to dispute the Terri bots on death with dignity issues. Conservatives by and large support the right to death with dignity and I'm a staunch conservative.
Some people try to stifle legitimate debate and opinion by screaming troll at anyone they disagree with.

"Prove your claim"

10-4 on that. There is no RealMedia video or audio stream I need to see/hear enough to make me load that crap on a system. Real Alternative - with Windows, it uses an older version of media player classic to basically bootstrap the realplayer codecs. Newer versions of Windows Media Player are very picky (they don't want you playing RM files, they want you using their formats) and so normally you'd have to install RealBloatWare Player.
On a thread-related note, I'm a bit shocked so many people aren't keeping an eye on what is on their machines or is being tracked. Alexa is, while not the worst, still a bit unsettling, and while it appears to be installed automatically with updates of Internet Explorer these days, still, you shouldn't be tracked unless you want to be.

Glad you posted that! Others can now watch out for it too..

Very interesting...
BTW, sorry if I double-reported "bothsidesnow" - I had not realized she(?) was already being watched.
To: I Am Not A Mod
Very very interesting. Thanks for all the work you did to bring us this information.
We have known for years that the enemy lurks here, plotting and planning against us.
Tough luck to all the commies, socialists, Birkenstock do-do birds, Bush-haters, Greens, environuts, feminazis, PETA idiots, anarchists, Al-Quaeda and other ghoulish species who spy on us!
We are stronger than all of you put together!! We will prevail, and you will die, Commie-scum!

" ""Well, I am a lifelong Republican ever since ...BUT now"
Didn't shawn hannity or rush have the same thing happen on their show? I seem to recall one of them mentioning it on the radio show. (It was a few months ago I think..I don't get to listen very often)

Well I've been accused of being a troll because I dare to dispute the Terri bots on death with dignity issues. Conservatives by and large support the right to death with dignity and I'm a staunch conservative. Perhaps because that particular case involves the "right" to provide "death with dignity" to someone who has not expressed any desire for it.

"I, too, have noticed older accounts that seem to suddenly come to life. But in this case, they seem to come on (believe it or not) the threads about the Laci Peterson murder."
Bad example. There is a mob mentality on those threads at times. If you disagree, you get flamed. And then people fight back. Sticking to political threads is much more accurate.
To: Grampa Dave
"There is another group that waits until good economic news is posted. Then they rally together to attack the good news and try to make it not important."
Closeted socialists, always spewing the same rhetoric.
90% of their posts are limited to these threads only. To me, argumentative/combative posters who only post on 1 subject are trolls.

"Well, I am a lifelong Republican ever since the Jurasic era, but unless President Bush campaigns for __( enter your favorite fringed johnny-one-note issue here )__ then this Republican will not be voting for him again!"That's one of my favorite lines to see/hear in a discussion, it's like a little kid saying "if you don't buy me this toy I'm going to find some other parents". I had a friend actually say something those lines and I replied "well that does it, if President Bush doesn't campaign for me to get a billion dollars this year, then I won't vote for him again!". He wasn't too amused, but he saw my point.
I will say there is a difference between somebody demanding the President be a cheerleader for their favorite issue, and drawing a line and saying "step over this line and I no longer support you".
I think everybody here has lines, that if crossed by a President or Senator or whatever, they would not support them. That's just part of the nature of being a Conservative as opposed to a liberal who will waffle over anything and has a spine filled with jello.
