We really should allow the troll submissions to be viewed for posterity. steady enough record may dissuade or, at least, make it more interesting when he/she/they return.

Randy...perhaps when a really good trollish post is made, it could be copied to the Submission Siberia thread with acknowledgement of the troll's handle. Then when the big poof occurs, the record would remain.

doc was a true FEPO and one really must admire how he went out in style. Imagine: creating a pseudo-intellectual with an advanced degree...and being exposed by faking a hunt using stolen pics from the Internet. That, after seeing the computer skills of many here being able to identify his plagiarism and his questionable academic accomplishments.

This was the classic poof of the ages...part of the lore of TBVIECia and RESOVEment.

Note to trolls:

When googling images for your fake live hunt, don't use stuff that pops up on page one when you search "treestand deer".

trublux2.

not just troll.... a serial troll.... troll for hire.... whatever....

AM.... I think that was even more spectacular than the houseboat captain..... but if you looked closely you could see the stress cracks coming for some time.....

I called him out time and time again on being a liar and he'd never address it. He wasn't programmed for it.

And to add some constructive criticism here....

Look, I know it's fun to debate and all, but one of the reason why this troll lasted for so long and kept coming back was because a lot of you were feeding him. Imagine if all the threads he started had NO responses?

DON'T FEED THE TROLLS!

They live like a major league pitcher at the end of his career.... all they throw is junk.... but as long as they get most guys to swing at it they still have a job...

#1 rule for Serial Trolls is keep the group engaged, right or wrong, facts or lies, doesn't matter. Just as long as you can keep the rally going, keep the ball in the air, you're doing your job.....

Hard to lay off that hanging curve....

Not taken as a poke in the eye, Paul. And, I genuinely appreciate that sentiment in your post. Thanks.

Doc's bizarre phony live hunt thoroughly destroyed any possibility of credibility. It was a lie on a scale I've never seen on the Bowsite... creating a fake hunt (complete with photos) for others to follow along. And, on a hunting website, no less. Had itshot not "outted" him, we may have eventually seen a photo-shopped image of Doc with Mitch Rompola's droopy-eared buck. LOL At any rate, he lied. That's intolerable. I'm glad he's gone.

That said, what bothered - and bothers - me is sophomoric behavior in here. Particularly the name calling. I run an organization that's an unaffiliated version of a Boys & Girls Club. I have tough street-wise kids at my Center every day. I hear far less name calling coming from them than what transpires here. Like I said - it bothers me. A lot. I really wish it would stop. But, I know it won't.

Again, I sincerely appreciated the sentiment in your post.

Yeah, Jack, Submission Siberia is a good solution to the "poofing."

Jimbo, I concede that you are correct in judging the tenor of the regard accorded to the trolls. For my part, I will try to up my game. However, I still will call a spade a spade.

There's only one thing to call someone who doesn't speak the truth....a liar.

He was, and I did.

AWWW......I didn't get to see his fake "hunt"!

If we keep them around for entertainment we should at least get to see their Grand Finale!

Somewhere in my youth I was taught to argue the facts and the position and not attack the person. If you expose the lie, there's no need to call them a liar. If you expose their cowardice, no need to call them a coward. If you expose their real motive no need to call them disingenuous.

Its an old cliche that when we resort to personal attacks we lose the argument and there's a lot of truth to that. Also, people can change when exposed to the truth. If you prove the earth is round they can accept it and maybe even go forward on the same team. Thats not as easy when its devolved into"You're an a*^%ole".

People like doc don't change. They are no different than the Islamo-loonies that we are fighting now.

I'm all for debate but not with lying zealots like doc. Facts don't matter, truth doesn't matter. It's taqiyya for progessives.

It's a waste of time and bandwidth.

"I had never heard of anything like this! That's why I started the other thread. It got me thinking about the reality that you never really know who you are talking to on the internet. People who aren't willing to show their face, never get as much trust from me...especially after what has just transpired."

MF, as far as I'm concerned there is one more Atheist to "poof". You present yourself very close to another person that got banned from the Leatherwall 5-6 yrs back. His name was "Atheist Archer".

MF, in the face of glaring evidence that doc was a complete fraud and an obvious outright phony, you followed his lead, defended, enabled and supported him.

In the face of many regulars here consistently and correctly telling you that he was fraudulent, and providing truthful posts to counter doc's lies, you gullibly clung to him.

What does that say about your intuitive abilities to apply good judgement to any situation?

And you question other people because they believe in a Higher Power?

If you believe, then believe. If you don't, then don't. Either way keep it PERSONAL and don't ram it in someone else's face.

As a Christian I try and live my faith by example. Please note I said "TRY". Like everything else that's worthwhile it's a journey and many times difficult.

But whether you do or you don't just be HONEST!
