How do you get an obvious freeper (and denier of the right to vote) tombstoned?
Just curious, of course.

1. My dear crimsonblue!
You hit the "alert" key at the bottom of every post, over in the lower left-hand corner...

It will be noted by the admins who will take whatever appropriate action is needed...

:hi:

2. Alert the questionable post.
Then the mods will decide if it warrants a tombstone, a deleted message, or nothing...

5. Defer to the experts...
alert on any post that you think is in some way inappropriate. Let the admins and moderators deal with it. That's what they're there for. It's not an easy job to get and they've been chosen to do it because they're good at it. I know I couldn't do it.

Trolls are like strays, if you don't feed them they go away. I know that I am not the best example of this as I cannot help arguing with people, but do as I say not as I do.

You know who is really good at getting trolls tombstoned? Themselves. Give them enough rope and they'll hang themselves...works every time.

6. Don't worry too much- that one's clearly headed for a tombstone. It just takes time, is all.
Just alert on his most blatant DU rule violations,
and the Mods will get around to him in due time.

7. Eventually they get so hot they burst into flames.

Sometimes it's sort of sad, like the Hindenburgh going down, but sometimes they'll shoot up into the air like rockets and explode like fireworks on the Fourth of July.

The lamest ones just get lost and wander away scratching their butts, or their mom's catch them downloading objectivist tentacle porn and take away their computers.


Many people do not realize that despite some caveats, Ayn Rand herself was a great fan of gay porn movies and of homosexual love.

"Zis is ze ideal," she would say. "Ze man luffing ze man--can zere be any more intense and idealistic, thoroughgoingkh form of ze man vorship? Nyet! You get ze double man quotient in ze single psycho-epistemological, sense-of-life nexus. I vould hate to be a man and haff to tool around mit a boring woman all ze time."

We are darn lucky to have transcriptions of the metaphysical-sex seminars which Rand conducted at some time in the early 1970s, and which have just been released (albeit in somewhat bowdlerized form) by The Ayn Rand Institute.

In these transcripts, Rand notes that, "Ze clash and union of man wid ze man, sexually, is de most dramatic form of value conflict and, ultimately, of ze romantic conquest and ze surrender--but not a literal surrender! For no man can truly surrender qua man. Zat is why zey all have ze cocks--de moral-metaphysical equivalent of ze warrior's sword."

8. lmao.
having read my fair share of Rand (Anthem, Atlas Shrugged, The Fountain) this doesn't surprise me in the least.
