Probably the best trolling I've ever seen.  Hundreds if not thousands of posts exist to tell iHN how stupid, racist, and out of touch he is he is.  I doubt he's any of those, but in any case.....credit where credit is due.   :P

That said, I wish you'd leave off, champ.  At least calm it down some.  Some of us are just average chumps trying to make our way in the world, and sifting through crappy posts by the people who fall for it takes time away from work and family.

There is no credit due. 

Even if he's not racist, stupid or out-of-touch, he gets jollies by acting like a douchebag for the sole purpose of provoking a reaction...  Like an eleven year old.  Congrats bro!  I guess we all have to find meaning in our lives somehow.

If anything, IHN has shown that the SR community is intelligent enough to speak up against racial intolerance... I guess...

Oh, and it took me 45 seconds to write this.  My work and family are no worse for wear.  IHN on the other hand has clearly devoted weeks to his sad attempt at trolling.

Back on topic...

I'm not sure what to make of the publicity on this place.  When I read articles like this it feels like a bigger target is being painted on our collective backs.

I guess the fact that we're still here is a testament to the dedication of DPR et al, as well as the resiliency of the systems in place to protect vendors and buyers alike.  Not to mention the determination of users to find drugs and dealers to make money. :)
