      I'd like to stress that, with hundreds of posts every day, we can't possibly read everyone of them.

      So if you've ever wondered "Why don't the Moderators do something about trolls etc on the board?", there's a really easy way to help out as Ironduke outlined :)

He was an utterly incapable, unadapted, irresponsible, psychopathic personality, full of empty, infantile fantasies, but cursed with the keen intuition of a rat or a guttersnipe. He represented the shadow, the inferior part of everybody’s personality, in an overwhelming degree, and this was another reason why they fell for him.”
