"Is he the only person in Renderosity to be a pain in the ass and call people names?" ...and not get banned for it? I believe that would be yes for the most part. While not perfect, the rules must still be enforced, even against trolls clever enough to just barely breach protocol. "Is he the only person to post inane drivel?! Is it a crime to disagree with Curious Labs or find fault with the manual?" The point isn't in his disagreement with CL... we all do that from time to time, and we even do it right now in anticipation of P5. The point is not that he's disagreeing with CL per se, instead the point is that he's trolling the Poser forum, and all the classic signs are there of a troll, and as such I'm calling "Troll" on his presence, pure and simple. grumble If the kid wants a flame war, and I knew I could do it without getting banned myself, I'd flame him into smoldering oblivion without a second thought. grumble How-ever, I'd prefer not to be banned myself, as I've got too much time, cash, and interest invested here to lose. Therefore, I choose to play by the rules here and report the troll as a candidate for the '/dev/null member category.' The rest is up to the mods, and as always I shall respect their decision. /P
