i didn't care for him going after alexandra for no reason, and i didn't like the way he just poked and poked and poked at people, but seemed that his complaints about this place were the very things he was doing himself...(that probably was worded wrong, but i know what i mean ) anyway...he like those before him chose his path.

My rule of thumb is: 1) kindness first, I usually am too. Both on the Innernets and otherwise. This was an exception for me, for some reason. I usually do kindness first too - it's just good "give what you want to receive" common sense. And it feels good. Thanks, Judi.

I went to TVoid and bed shortly after reading your post that lit this all up. Some did call Servo a troll, but that's water under the bridge. I called Servo a few things, but I believe troll was never one of them. I've been called a troll now and then as have you. I don't believe I've ever called anyone a troll. IIRC, neither have you. Its a two way street. To me, troll is the innernet equivalent of the 'N' word. If you give a rat's ass, the label hurts. Some like to toss it around too freely and with little thought. Whatever. I gave it a shot and tried to offer gman some public counsel this time around and some pm counsel a long time ago. It clearly hurt to see him go after Alexandra the way he did. Totally beyond the pale. I read the comment in the bug thread that apparently lit the fuse and those that followed. He got what he wanted in the end. As he has shared with us, he's had a rough life to this point taking him at face value. No justification for what just transpired, but it has been recognized in this post mortem, so there is that. Flight or fight. He chose the latter. In the end, its sad anyway its sliced. Mean and trollish, heavy on the ish, but not a true troll, imo.
