Ah. Well I think its a bit harsh referring to her as a troll. Trolling is disruption with intent, and if anything, I would say Lumberjim's continual goading of her was more intentionally disruptive. But YMMV and all that.
My mileage varies by...well, miles!

It had more to do with the screaming and "fucking off" to anyone with any suggestions or advice. I did reach out to Tiki...until she screamed at a couple more of my friends. I still don't DISLIKE her, but I don't live with that kind of thing IRL (gave it up 6 years ago) and won't live with it on the intrawebz.

Oh yes, I will go off completely, but not at someone who is just trying to help.

FWIW...how do you guys read anything over there? I wanted to actually participate in the forum, give it a shot (I was not a Safari participant) but I can't tell posts from outside quotes from user titles from advertisements (of little boy computer games) from user quotes from pics from animated GIFs. It's really confusing. What was funny was that I read that the cellar has no substance, because we often link to websites as citation or out of interest, or something to that effect. HA! We don't need all the little fillers that are distracting from the words.

But, YMMV.

Oh, and one more question: Are we the Sharks, or are we the Jets? I'm having my costume made.

Well it might depend what browser you are using, in part, as well as the forum skin. I use Firefox, with the forum default. But usually, the quotes are in the shaded blue boxes. Most people post a link first, then a quote and then a comment if its an outside article. The accounts are pretty customizable and signatures are whatever is below the dull grey line you see in someone's post.

Its well worth checking out the skins, to see which one works for you. I find the default one works quite nicely, but others prefer the darker screen version or the YaBB one. Its a matter of personal taste, ultimately.
