Let me help you define Munchausen’s Syndrome so you don’t give yourself an aneurism. Munchausen’s Syndrome is where someone seeks inappropriate medical attention, usually harmful medical attention, especially surgery. I don’t think my teasing you about being an Apple media troll has anything to do with seeking harmful or improper medical attention.

As I said, you don't know what you are talking about as I asked you who Baron von Münchausen was. . . and you have not replied. I have demonstrated that I know very well exactly what Münchausen's Syndrome is. . . but that was not the syndrome described. YOU have no sense of humor. None at all. Typical Liberal literal response. I told you that you did not have the ability to pull all the puns out of that. . . and you don't. You've demonstrated it.

Your teasing steps over the bounds of propriety into insult and calumny, , , there are lines that should not be crossed and you do it regularly. You accuse people of mental illness, and if you were a medical professional, you would know you do not do that idly, yet you do it repeatedly. That is not "teasing." You do it individually and generally to Apple users. We are TIRED of it. We've asked you politely and pointedly to cut it out. You refuse. That makes you a bully when you continue. There is no point in doing so except for your own aggrandizement.

Sword, these trolls are all the same. In fact, if JR would let us see their IP addresses, I'd bet most of them are coming from the same place.

No matter, their attacks are well-explained in medical literature

“and you have not replied.”

And in your feeble mind that concludes for you that I don’t know?? Maybe these childish challenges internet dweebs put out like this have long ago become boring. You nerds usually try to demand asnwers and tangle yourselves up trying to get someone to answer.

Why don’t we talk about your medical self abuse issues or maybe who pays you to post Apple press releases all day and night, or whom else uses your account to do so?

“In fact, if JR would let us see their IP addresses, I’d bet most of them are coming from the same place.”

Define “troll”. I mean, we call BS to all of sword’s continued Apple postings and that is the trolling aspect of the conversation? Don’t you think posting all day and night every Apple press release is the trolling?

FAIL! Its a bogus watch and with the market dips in China now the gadget crazy Asians are boycotting it. Apple is losing money every day on it. My estimate is they are out $50 on each watch sale. Plus legal gay marriage has the gays boycotting it too. So what buyers are left? The fanbois, the aspiring rappers and the aspiring hipsters

Uh, no. Apple has sold 5.5 million Apple Watches between April 10 and June 26 at an average sale price of a little over $500. . . that's an additional $2.75 Billion in revenue for Apple in less than two months, and an additional $1.5 Billion in profits. . . with 37% still yet to deliver of the pre-sales. Do you have any other nonsense you've made up to post? This post is just like all the other lies you post on Apple threads. FALSE. Why do you do it? It just makes you look ridiculous. You destroy any credibility you might have on FreeRepublic.

You seem very defensive of Apple’s public image. Why is that? Munchausen’s Syndrome is often accompanied by other obsessive behaviors.

Ok lets bet....ask JF to review all of our IP adresses and ban anyone using multiple log ins....

But if we are all different people with independant view points and differing IP’s....everyone on Swordmakers enforcer ping list gets banned instead....

I’m more than willing to bet on it...are you?

That is not the definition of Münchausen Syndrome. . . or at least it's a very narrow self-serving definition. Here's a much more complete definition.

Munchausen syndrome is a psychiatric factitious disorder wherein those affected feign disease, illness, or psychological trauma to draw attention, sympathy, or reassurance to themselves. It is also sometimes known as hospital addiction syndrome, thick chart syndrome, or hospital hopper syndrome. True Munchausen syndrome fits within the subclass of factitious disorder with predominantly physical signs and symptoms, but they also have a history of recurrent hospitalization, travelling, and dramatic, untrue, and extremely improbable tales of their past experiences.

My use of Münchausens had to do with what the anti-Apple hater Brigade doing was being "Factitious". . . of using "factoids" of their own or other's creation.

Something tells me you have been accused of Munchausen’s in your real life. Would I be right?

What is it with you people??? You are almost worse than Socialists. I have suspected that you anti-Apple hate Brigade have been using Alinsky's Rules for Radicals, specifically rules 5 and 12 in these Apple threads, targeting me.

Now you again invade the area of ad hominem attack on me. . . again literally attacking me with the accusation of mental illness. How reprehensible can you get? I'd say that's pretty reprehensible. . . couched in a question that leaves a doubt in other readers' minds. What a coward you are. . . and you are a really nasty piece of work. You are sick.

Every single one of you does this. It appears to be deliberate and organized. . . and often the exact same tactics and even wording is used. I've been ridiculed and accused of being mentally ill, or off my meds, or needing medication by THREE of you today. . . all for calling you on your rude behavior.

My question is to you and CodeToad, exactly what value or worthwhile information or even on topic discussion have either of you EVER contributed to this or any Apple thread? Please enlighten us.

I told you before. That's not why I pinged them. They are just a few Freepers who are amused by the antics of the Anti-Apple Trolls. They find you hilarious.

I see you have a problem with reading comprehension as well as spelling. It's spelled "Posse," Crim. I told you exactly who I was asking. I shall not repeat it.

And "us" is everyone who might have wished to use this thread that you and CodeToad have made it impossible to enjoy by smearing your bile all over the place. Good job. You succeeded in doing what you came in here to do. Submit your voucher and get paid by the FUD spreaders. You earned your pay.
