Yes, MONGO has been trolled, but he has also continually fed the trolls, and many of his woes are self-inflicted. As for Wikipedia not protecting him, I don't know what alternate universe that is written from, but the way I see it, he's always had a powerful clique circling their wagons around him every time he's (sometimes justly) criticized, and making sure that all the slings and arrows aimed at him bounce back and injure his critics instead. After all that, he's still peeved because not everybody who has ever had a bad word to say about him has been summarily, permanently banned on just his say-so, and that, on a few occasions, a necessity to give due process to people he accuses of wrongdoing has been observed. He and his friends have often been seen organizing "a sustained, vicious, well- orchestrated and relentless attack" against those who oppose him, but nobody can call them bullies without being labeled as a "troll". It's long past time that the rules of Wikipedia be enforced impartially on everybody, not with the double standard where the favored clique is always right and anybody opposing them is always wrong. -- == Dan == Dan's Mail Format Site: http://mailformat.dan.info/ Dan's Web Tips: http://webtips.dan.info/ Dan's Domain Site: http://domains.dan.info/
