Killfiled by a fellow motorist-hater? Oh dear. Infighting tends to be common among those who are united by holding (or purporting to hold) an illogical position, so it's hardly surprising I suppose.

To be fair, you and "_" ("_" in particular) are exceptionally boring, posting little more than "Don't feed the troll". At least the other motorist-haters actually vary what they say, even if it is lying bollocks. The funniest thing is that both of you only posted "Don't feed the troll" in the first place to show off and win the respect of the regulars, rather than to stop people replying to me, and it's completely backfired.

I see you've now realised (belatedly) that it's a stupid idea, and sooner or later, "_" will as well (and he'll hugely regret not doing it sooner, when he was asked nicely). He's *incredibly* obstinate though: I reckon he's probably already realised there's no point in doing it, but just because I and other people have told him to stop, he's forced himself to carry on (despite not really wanting to), afraid that otherwise he'll be seen as "backing down" and "doing what people tell him" and therefore "weak". You do have to wonder how old he is, and how insecure.

At the end of the day, all he's really succeeded in doing is attracting my attention in a major way. The fact that he's *still* posting "Don't feed the Troll", despite knowing that it will attract my attention, shows that he's not really bothered by my posts, and he really is just posting "Don't feed the Troll" to show off and/or get on my wick (which admittedly it is doing, but it hasn't stopped me starting new threads as Nuxx Bar, and by the end of this, he'll be far more annoyed with me than vice versa).
