It would almost be worth burning an account just to reply "I am also very uncomfortable talking about this with anyone who isn't your wife!"

You know that's the type of person that would flip out over somebody making a comment about his wife over the internet (unless that's also a troll acount).

The folks actually involved the IRC were pretty good about keeping in line, except for the one goatse which wasn't explicitly cleared with the Central Trolling Committee.


The real wave of porn came from the Gibbis explosion, which is neither here nor there. A bit annoying in that it does detract from the "TS going crazy over pretty much nothing", but it does add to the overall mood of panic.

Plus they were claiming "porn attacks" even when it was just completely legit pics of gay men kissing and black guys hugging white chicks.


If we'd had a 100% organized effort from the beginning this would be panning out very differently, probably with long-term disinfo plans, etc. Then again, if we hadn't pissed off Billy and had him threaten a goon, he wouldn't have been exposed as a con artist, so it's really just a fluid process.
