Hi all.
We had a visit from another disruptor, who has decided to grace us with postings of a rather vulgar image (to put it mildly).
We have received a few mails from people asking if we could delete the picture from their "My Comments" page. At the moment, we cannot. In the interim, what you can do if one is in your "My Comments" page is to set the "My Comments" page to "brief" rather than "full". This will hide the content of the posts, thereby hiding the graphic. To switch the setting, just click on the word "Brief" near the top right of your "My Comments" page, or click here.
Sorry for the inconvenience.

Additional advice: those who have Mozilla browsers can "right click" on the picture and select "Block images from this server". Next time the page is reloaded, you don't have to look at that garbage, just a nice blank spot.I am pretty sure Mac users with iCab can do something similar.57 posted on 09/05/2003 11:41 AM EDT by Willie Green (Go Pat Go!!!)
Well, I've learned a whole new word, coprophilia. And I even went to Webster's to look it up.
Now, here's the problem. There is no way I can use that word at work to impress co-workers with how smart I am. It's a word and concept that is not only not useful, but one I wish I could forget.
It didn't show up on everyone's "My Comments" page. The troll posted the pic on as many threads as he could, in the form of a reply, before he was banned. But the people he put in the 'Reply To' box to still had it on their Comments page, even after it was pulled from the threads.
The only other way you could have seen it was to have been browsing on one of the threads when it appeared.

I ran the prescribed search in Google/Images and got this wonderful little photo. But I knew it could not be the offender
Then I ran it in Google/Pages and got a verbal description of the 'real thing.' We're better off with this photo.
