I am ashamed

“I am ashamed to be associated with some of the people on this board.

Some people have such low esteem for themselves and others that they find malicious, demeaning behavior to be self fulfilling. Just being at the same place at the same time as some of these people disturbs me.

I don't know who they are other than the troll name.

But nothing, I mean nothing, would please me more than for matt to expose them. At least for me, it would allow me complete assurance I would never have to waste any of my time on the trail with anyone of them.”

“and well said.”

“It doesnt look like you would spend any time with them on the trail anyway”

“I agree.”

“Well said Chili.”

“...at one point we did, sorry Chili you got ticked off.”

“Matt needs to have the "tell all" day at TC3, in person the trolls would be really scared.”

“Off with his thread!”

“I have no problem revealing myself there, the troll crap is getting old anyway.”

“Step up, Packman.”

“ThePackMan doesn't need to be sorry that I got ticked off.

The person behind that troll really needs to examine themself. There is no need to tell me your sorry. Hell, I know that already.”

“I didn't read that thread till chili started this one.
ThePackMan is one of the many nasty trolls I try to not read.
If a thread is started by it, I know the thread isn't worth reading.
I do wish I knew who that troll is. I would hate to assume it was the wrong person.”

“In person, not on here. Why hide. You probably wont believe it anyway...”

“it's pitiful to post such pics.”

“To hold my word on it I wont post anything else, troll or not, until after TC3.

I have 2 accounts I use, real and Troll, NO OTHERS, conspire, theorize all you want about cross trolls crap, but TPM is it. I have met most of you before thats why I poke on some but not others, because I dont know them. So I will show up and take all the heat...

See you then.”

“Attendance at TC3 just went up.”

“so what about the people that are not going?

not fair.

i don't think it's right to say you are a reg poster.
i mean you can get pretty mean.
it scares me to think that there is really someone out there with a spilt personality.
I do have an idea as to who you are. I hope im wronge. i truly do becasue it would be sad.

we already know you are Gene uss”

or down :(”

“...actually I just created a new yahoo account with that name cuz I thought he was funny until he made fun of the memorial service... then put an images there and made every thought I was he... it worked...

But I am off, need to keep to the promise that I wont post until after TC3... so, see you there.”

“You're a brave troll then PackMan, as I think you've been fairly offensive to a number of people on this site. I'll believe it when it actually happens. I don't think you've got the balls.”

“Thanks chili. It looks like that thread may have been removed for violating Matt's use policy...especially the last image that was posted.

I'm all for having fun on TT. Most people I have meet through TT (and that is quite a few) have a great sense of humor. However, seem people seem to confuse humor with bad taste and offensiveness.

I say we all learn from this and "Party On. Dude!"”

“Phil, you Sir, are one hell of a g
Gentleman. I am very happy I had the opportunity to meet you.”

“oops, I saw the extra "g" about the time I hit submit.

Anyway, I am sure you get the ggist (intended) of what I meant!”

“Yes Phil, you're a fine example for all of us.”

“He said that he's met "most of you" in person before...so TPM must be the troll even though he says "it is the real thing."

One question before you go TPM, have you posted with your real identity here in the last two days?”

“two days? No, Fri or Sat I think before I headed to the hills.

Promise, drinks are on me.”

“ThePackMan Yahoo Profile reveals:


Yahoo! ID: thepackman
Real Name: Jake
Location: NC
Age: 21
Marital Status: No Answer
Gender: Male
Occupation: Student, NC State”

“Thanks chili for REALLY saying something probably everyone feels here. The dickheads (excuse me) that come in here and post crap just to get a rise out should go elsewhere. God knows, we will never see them on the trail.

We need more threads like the one by humanpackmule who takes the time to share a week long adventure. Thanks again for the adventure.

I know I can sometimes get carried away with goofy threads, but I think we can have fun here too.

PS, your tape is in the mail
Cheers!”

“Thanks, WK. I look forward to seeing it.”

am I close?

I knew that was not your real name. anyone that uses there real name like that and continues to be mean out in the open is either a moron or a nut job.”

“So Chili, who's here is a student at NC State? Or do you think the yahoo profile is made up?”

“WK, there a a great many threads that are started by good people, but quickly get trashed byt heses morons.”

“heses morons=these morons”

“Maple...you also need to consider the fact that not all students who attend a school in one state are from that state. TPM could go to NC State but be from somewhere else (a surrounding state probably) and have that listed as his home state.”

“It was last updated in 2000, if I read it correctly.

I think the question might be "who is a NC State Alum?"

I know of at least one NC State Fan on this board, but to be fair, I am not pointing any fingers until I know for sure who it is.

I would expect them to be big enough to confess.”

“That is what upsets me Maple.”

“would expect them to be big enough to confess."

chili, you may not live that long to see that really happen. im sorry to say”

“Ok You guys will probably rip me appart for this, but I must have missed something when the whole troll thing started. What the heck is a troll?”

“13Fist,

In simple terms it can be one of two things:

1. A humerous alias used by a regular TT poster to keep us amused.

Example: Marvin Gardens


2. A worthless coward who hides behind an alias while maliciously offending others.

Example: ThePackMan”

“Couldn't have said it better chili!

13fist, are you new?”

“You ever get out to California? I would be willing to teach you how to do some lead climbing..........”

“Thanks Chili,

Wounded Knee...Well i've had an account here for a while, but haven't been able to post much or even check it out too often until now.”

“Better now than never 13. Where in Wisconsin you from?”

“giving way too much attention to this worthless human being....”

“Oshkosh now, but I've lived all over the state”

“Come on chilli36, let's not be such a champion of free speech and then turn around and complain about lowbrow posts.

Can a brotha get a link to the thread?”

“I'm not trying to be antagonistic (sp?), but why doesn't eeryone just ignore the trolls that bug you? They poke at ya 'cause they gets a rise outta ya. There used to be a saying 'round here "Don't feed the Trolls", what ever happened to that?”

“13, I am about 30 minutes south of Chicago in Indiana. You should come hiking sometime with me a Crazy Mike.”

“Exactly Q. Now we have a whole thread deicated to the troll.

Smooth move Ex-Lax.”

“My God it has has happned people on TT are becoming so smart that they are exploding like a super nova!

8)

I hope I am not one of those people Chili?”
