Relax > a > bit and get off the sauce. Dear troll, The definition of a troll: " A purposely stupid, inflammatory, or downright wrong article (closely related to flamebait). Its purpose is to get people mad and make them look stupid and gullible" Source (your beloved AOL): http://www.aol.com/netfind/newsgroup/glossary.html Let's break down your response to see how you define as one. > "Listen pal.." Original message from: "spiraleyedgirl@..." I guess that's just plain stupid. > "there's are reason.." No comment. > "this stuff is free; figure it out for yourself!" The original question was: > Where can I find information on programming for FreeBSD? Which you didn't seem to answer. Finally, the original message was posted October 17th, your answer however was posted October 28th, after 5 positive posts and 11 days. So I believe when Mr. Keramidas saluted you with "Dear troll" he wasn't wrong at all. Look at the bright side, he said "Dear", and your trolling actually works!! Have a nice day. Eihab E. Ibrahim
