Don't fret yourself Nancy. Since the beginning of the Internet there have been folk whose only purpose is to disrupt conversations. We call these folks Trolls!
Trolls, like I said have been around since the beginning. They 1st started showing up when Usenet Newsgroups, were the main form of interchange amongst vast numbers of users. They then began invading the realm on Mail-Lists, and now Web-Based List-Serve.
Nancy, you've got to understand that most of these Trolls are of a much, much, lower than average intelligence, than the groups they post to. Usually they are assisted by a "chimp", or "helper monkey," who are utilizing pointed sticks.
Most of the Trolls in question also seem to suffer from Tourette's Syndrome...hence the foul language. They also range between the ages of 12 and 14, and are usually male. I use the phrase male only as a classification because many Trolls are not only sub-adolescent, but even if they are over the gateway-age...they are still, Sub-Adolescent, Trolls! The female Trolls, or Trollops are merely, the slutty hangers on who follow thier kiddie boyfriends actions.
So as you can see, we shouldn't take the actions of any of these groups seriously! They are merely mentally challenged, and as such should just be treated as infants.
