Viking KittiePAC Puts a Bounty on Trolls at FR

Wanted: Preferably Dead $0.01

As you have noticed, there has been an increased level of "troll traffic" at FR, so I have decided to make lemonade out of lemons and placed a $0.01 USD reward out for every Troll ZOT!ed at Free Republic. The contribution to the Bush re-elecion campaign, Republican candidates, and the RNC will be based on the total number of ZOT!ed Tolled blasted away between 2/16/2004 and Election Day. The AdminMods are highly effective in what they do so the final total could be a rather large sum.

If you are wondering why I'm only contributing $0.01 per ZOT!, ask yourself this - are trolls really worth more than a penny each? Trolls are vastly overvalued as it stands right now 8^)

Trolls think they can come to Free Republic and try crash our party - they are wrong. We're planning to turn the tables on them and going to use their numbers against them to help conservative candidates. We would appreciate your support by freep-mailing me that you want to be on the ZOT!List or want to help in other ways.

I appreciate your time for considering this proposal.

Just received mail from "nancy again",probably nancyR or freerepublican 76. I've received 5 in 2 days.

[Darksheare]

I never receive angry troll-o-grams!
I'm jealous!

Me, too.

Recommend going to ZOTCON 1.

[MEG33]

(((((Darksheare))))) There!

[Neets]

Any idea who this/these person(s) is/are?

[Darksheare]

LOL!
I keep reading about angry troll-o-grams, and saw a thread about one in particular awhile ago.
But I have been lucky (unlucky?) enough to never receive one so far.
*chuckle*
Somehow, I feel left out.

[MEG33]

How the heck to do anything except hit delete.I did answer this one,suggesting the internet was a big world and if we could not be the correct type of forum,she might start one herself.

[Dr.Zoidberg]

You too hunh?

And I thought I was special. Dang.

[Darksheare]

Sounds like the guy this previous thread on a similar subject is about: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1039197/posts
Who is Bandedcaves (He has been Zotted)

That thread was where I first heard about angry troll-o-grams.

[Axenolith]

Is it cheating to stir up DU to pad the numbers? ;)

[WV Mountain Mama]

Put me on the troll list, we are almost out of venison already! I wonder if they taste like chicken....

[MEG33]

These are trolls who do answer back.Many just sign back on or already have multiple handles.Some fool by being very supportive about one issue or another.Hard to call in the kitties even though you suspect.

Bob J said they had a huge sign up in 2000 ,but even '98 posters can be trolls.These are different than than the juvenile hit and runners.It may be juvenile,but they do keep out of trouble just for the fun of fooling freepers at times.

[MEG33]

My troll was much more subtle,critical of the US foreign policy,lack of being loved by the majority of nations.

[sarasmom]

He was scary!
I wasted time searching my posts attempting to find out why I would merit such a nasty freep-mail.

[Darksheare]

Yeah, I remember trying to figure out if it was drive by spamming or not.
I'd thought that maybe he FReepmailed everyone in one particular state, but everyone was from random states it seemed.
Wonder if this new troll is another incarnation of BannedCaves.

[Darksheare]

Weird.
Really truly weird.

[sarasmom]

Please add me to the list!
I usually miss most of the ZOTs, but I do so enjoy watching the Borgs get brushed off!

[Poohbah]

Nope, she was not monogamous.

[Dr.Zoidberg]

Great, just great.

Now I suppose I need to start a full cycle of antibiotics.

Thats the last time I open freepmail without wearing protection. Anybody got a spare suit of full plate armor I can borrow?

[Poohbah]

Moose (and troll) bites can be nasty.
