How to Feed Your Troll
As most people know (or can guess), I keep LOLMac as a very 'public-facing' journal. For example, I allow anonymous commenting -- some of the people who like to drop in and enjoy aren't on LJ, or don't want to use Open ID, or whatever. My only regret for these commenters is that they might not see the replies to their comments, unless they check back.
However, I retain the right to remove, with extreme prejudice, any comment that I find offensive, or that I feel is incendiary. I cheerfully admit to no scruples in this; I want LOLMac to be a safe place to drop in and hang out.
So why am I blathering along instead of posting a silly picture? Okay, here's a picture. (It's a re-run. Click to embiggen.) More blathering under the cut.
This morning, I deleted three abusive comments from LOLMac: two anonymous comments, and one from a sock puppet, It seems that there's an obsessive lunatic out there on the intranets -- whoda thunk? -- with a vicious grudge against a specific person in Stargate fandom. This troll's latest wank is to track down the friends of the friends of the woman she's targeting -- yep, that's right -- and spam them with demands that they 'stop enabling the trolls', which seems to mean 'dump your friends or I will stalk you too'.
Yeah. This bitch came onto my own journal and demanded that I ban my friends, anyone who's a Friend of her primary target.
Well, you can imagine how well that went over. I have now Friended the primary target. So, I'm now a target -- and I already was anyway, given how wide the red circles are being drawn.
I'm expecting that there may be more spam. It's possible that there may be abusive comments posted in response to comments left here. It's your choice: if you ignore the comments, I'll delete them and report them as spam, and file another harassment report. If you choose to respond to the spammer, please feel free to be very rude and offensive and bitch her out to the max. Sweet reason does not work on this psycho.
I am informed that she particularly hates Harry Potter, lesbians, and country music, and that she loves furry porn, creationism, and ABBA. If you aren't able to ignore the troll, please yank her chain hard. We might as well get some fun out of this, right?
ETA: Woohoo! I've been banned from one of her sock puppet journals!
ETA2: Haha! She just posted an anonymous threat here! I've unscreened it so we can have fun with it. Gosh, apparently I pay people to do my bidding. I always wanted minions, but geez, I gotta pay them?

YOUR LINKS TO ME BALG ARE ILLEGAL
This should be "your links to me, the Balrog, are illegal". As a matter of fact said links are quite legal under subsection 245.6911N-6G of the Code of Middle Earth, but it's a little-known loophole, so you're perfectly free to make the claim if you don't mind being taken down in the Appellate Court of the Reunited Post-Numenorean Kingdom (King Elessar presiding).
Although I think Gandalf might have a prior claim. Didn't he kill you once already?
Oh right, double jeopardy.
YOU KNOW YOU HAVE COPYRIGHT VIOLATIONS
The copyright law in Middle Earth is somewhat vague; I believe the clearest reference is to "courtesy, at least, to living authors". However, Terran, Abydonian, Klingon, and Gallifreyan authorities agree that knowledge of illegality by the perpetrator of a copyright violation is neither necessary for prosecution, nor is its lack pertinent to the defence.
AND YOU ENCOURAGE PEOPLE TO BE NASTY AND MEAN SPIRITED WHICH IS ILLGEAL...
We wish.Mean-spirited should have a hyphen, "illgeal" is not recognized by Anglophonic dictionaries, and your use of ellipses is idiosyncratic. I suggest a crash course of the works of Chris Claremont, Master of the Ellipsis (with a side nod to Tom Orzechowski, Master of Fitting Chris's Really Long Captions Into The Frame).YOU HAVE INDIVIDUALS THAT YOU PAY TO DO YOUR BIDING.
Actually, we bide with Beth (and she with whoever-it-is) all on our own, but as you can't prove a negative (and anyway I would rather like a nice fat paycheck for hanging out here reading all the mouseover texts I haven't gotten to yet), I'll simply point out that neither biding nor paying others to do one's biding is illegal or considered immoral, not even on Coruscant at the height of the Palpatinian Empire.
AND I AM NOT FINISHED…EVERYONE IS GOING TO BE ADVISE HOW TO DEAL WITH YOU FROM A LEGAL ASPECT.
1: How sad.
2: Tch, those ellipses!
3: Specify the subject of the sentence in a threat, it's a lot scarier.
4: "Going to be advised" is a passive future perfect construction and therefore takes a final D. (Although students who can deploy it properly seldom take a D on the final.)
5: I don't think that word means what you think it means.
LAST WORD IS MINE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!03AHJ_VusrSBQrBdaN7g_X8Ap6aokwqO-s066nbyKZOCsiTpQNq1snUAGqLbdxTlynfFJLGGv5cUMfCvEdzItHU3E__0fS3QpW3zsOjKMXECKaLy24aYQSnB2Fk09gpQnv5fSQSw6MlGx3!!!!!!!nobill unpub
The last word of that impressive sentence is "unpub". Please do so. (The penultimate word, though, looks like your cat got involved with the keyboard. Care to elaborate? *ducks*)
