Ok, I'm not a troll though you suggested I was "trolling"...

DU has been my first introduction to blogging; I do appreciate the clarity on the nuance of being a troll vs trolling terminology.

Using your definition - no, I had/have no desire to piss people off just for the fun of it. Gawd, I got a life! Again, my post history/journal speaks for itself. Your assumption that I would know DLC is universally hated on DU was just that. Though it seems 95% of the respondents to my question dislike the DLC. Great to learn something new today; new for me anyway.

In the category of - don't sweat the small stuff - maybe next time simply don't assume anything . There are genuine newbies, rehabilitated rethugs, young folk, or just someone that missed the story on DU. I imagine the true freepers or just plain assholes sort themselves out pretty quick and are well known by all. One thing that distinguishes us from freepers is we DON'T march in lock step on all issues.

My reaction to this particular "small stuff" was (thinking) ya called me a freeper - when I already spend way too much energy hating the pukes and all they stand for. Shrub and Shooter get me to frothing on command alright! DUer's.....hey they're buds! :hi:
