I for one will be reviewing what we did in December to try and get some of that mojo back. But there's nothing in march that distinguishes it from the previous months, so what it was supposed to prove is beyond me and I found it kind of amusing.

If he wants the trolls he can leave them be. If he stops the trolls, it's his business right? Who the hell are you to question what he wants on his own blog - THE BLOG HE PAYS FOR?...

Those guys didn't say <b>anything</b> offensive. You just didn't like what they had to say because they were taking the time to post evidence and well reasoned arguments. Besides, they were basically the best thing that has ever happened for you blog in terms of traffic except for one little flare in June 2006. http://www.alexa.com/data/details/traffic_details?q=&url=punkassblog.com Give me a break.

I love that in addition to exploratory minds and people who like ask questions, existence also includes folks who just want to bug the shit out of other folks. And "I wonder if anyone’s given serious thought to scientifically studying the “blog troll” phenomenon." The NY Times did an article -- w/o cheesecake photos -- on flaming /trolling / general bad internets behavior. A friend of mine in Sri Lanka posted some good thoughts around that: http://www.indi.ca/2007/02/psychology-of-flaming/ Ah trolls.
