Hello David,

 LL>>>> Since points are welcomed as sysops, then so are trolls.

 DD>>> Only if they become nodelisted.

 LL>> No troll would get caught dead being nodelisted.
 LL>> Which is why no troll has ever been nodelisted.

 DD> That is incorrect - as you will find out come the "resurrection".

"Girls just wanna have fun." ~Cyndi Lauper

So do trolls.  Which is why we love her oh so much!

 DD> [...]

 LL>>>> Not all trolls are part of somebody's list.  And that is the way
 LL>>>> it should be.  Unlimited freedom of speech should be the gold
 LL>>>> standard for all.

 DD>>> Where do you get this daft idea that there is any offer/guarantee of
 DD>>> "freedom of speech" in Fidonet? No such promise is made anywhere.

 LL>> I said it *should* be.  Not that it is.  Do note the difference.  :)

 DD> What "should be" is often a matter of personal opinion.

"Trump is always right" is often a matter of opinion among the masses.

 DD> I'm sure that some would consider that you "should be" placed in an odd
 DD> shaped pine box and the lid screwed down.

Oh, come now.  I live in the swamp.  Alligators are my friends ...
