(A parody of J. R. R. Tolkien's "The Stone Troll") Troll sat alone on his chair of stone And searched the Web for sites unknown. It was his game to spam and flame Where flame wars could be come by! From by! Scum by! He'd many a user cheeséd off With flame wars he had come by! On fora he tended towards the end Of learning how best to shock and offend. Their fandoms he'd diss, their hobbies dismiss, And their beliefs disparage! Carriage! Larrage! It really enraged and angered them To have their beliefs disparaged! And when he'd alight on political sites, Be they of the left or of the right, The method he chose was that he would pose As fringe of the opposition! Dishin'! Sishin! Got explosions that put Michael Bay to shame By posing as the opposition! The troll was a jerk who made folks hurk. Reasoning with him didn't work. Alone in the end, without a friend, He didn't know what he missed out on! Lout on! Knout on! He was determined not to know Just what he was missing out on!

When I go into an MMOG, I want to FORGET about hot-button issues for a time, not be told by an author filibuster (contributor filibuster, actually) that anyone with views like mine OBVIOUSLY wants to make the world as hellish as possible, with the possibility of ethical concerns on the subject not even considered.
