just remember the best trolls are the hardest to spot. A true troll can go undetected for a long time, and there is NO point in trying to reason with them.

I find some people go a bit over the top with the "kill the troll" type comments. But either way im glad when they get banned.

....

I agree. Anyone with the mentality, "I've made up my mind, don't confuse me with the facts." is not for this forum.

Fact: Anything good about HD DVD is better on blu-ray, or soon will be on the next firmware patch.

With that being said, ban the troll.

oldmike only has 151 posts. I'm suspicious.

Could be with the Red Army.

Most that are coming on here to be trolls are only going to be on here to start trouble. You cannot talk to most hardcore supporters of either format to sway them. It would be impossible to get me to change sides, no matter what is coming out only on the HD DUD side. Sorry friend, you will not change trolls with facts.

I'm a troll.

But seriously, the Moderators discuss these things in depth on hidden boards before they take action, it's not like "ZOMG HE MADE A TYPE THAT SAID HD-DVD BANINATE HIM!!111"

Between PMs and the Report Posts, I get at least 3 of those requests a day actually. "he said positive things about HD DVD! BURN THE WITCH!"

You've probably gotten a few from me today, I've seen some spam posts.
