First rule of troll hunting: Not every newbie is a troll, even if they post something written by a radical. You know how it is with these people, they can't shut up, they have to "mix it up" by claiming that we're the real fascists because we don't want to come here and read their Trotskyite crap all day. Doubt very much that this guy is a troll.

I've been around since 2001 (this is my second account) and have done my fair share of troll hunting since I first came. He struck me as a troll because he was not only a newbie, but one posting something that, by its very nature, would get very emotional responses. Normally, that is trolling.

After seeing his responses on this thread, I am inclined to believe he was well intentioned but a little hasty in making a post that, on the surface, could easily be taken for trolling. If I was mistaken, I apologize to him.

Oh, and by the way, the first rule of troll hunting is not to give them mercy while the lightning bolts are flying. The rule you stated is number three in the handbook. ;)
