    Modded troll eh?

    How ironic.

    Either the mod is himself a troll, or - more likely - he is an imbecile.

    I WISH that there were a "+1 Troll" mod! Just for messages like this!

    You just made my day. I just hope that this WAS a troll (and, like any good troll, it's got me guessing).

    You Rule!
