By
"it" I meant "your personal crusade", not "the CVU",
although I
suspect you already knew that.
Well, since you're willing to give me enough credit to recognize
antecedents, maybe you'd be willing to consider that I'm making a
serious point, one that's been agreed with by other people. Are they
blatantly trolling too?
If you just posted and said "Counter-Vandalism Unit is an
unnecessarily aggressive name under which to organize counter-
vandalism" that would be one thing. But you started with "Counter
Vandalism Unit sucks and is a bunch of evil militarist jackbooted
fascists!!" to get a bunch of responses on the mailing list. That's
the textbook definition of trolling, or as we used to call it, "just
trying to get attention".
