I am unclear on a concept here. (There's a first time for everything.) What is this "ZOT!" thing I often see attached to a thread posted by some alien being? If the thread were to be vaporized it would not have many many responses thereafter. There is one ZOTTED thread around here somewhere that has passed the 1,000 response point. Does a freeper death ray go forth and smite the alien poster? Is this legal?
