I hate to say it but this type of stuff grew quite uninteresting to me quite a while back. Yeah, me... the guy who had an actual meet n greet with a net bully. And I suppose my own personal growth out of the envelope-pushing guy I was 10 - 15 years ago adds to my indifference to this sort of drama. I've seen the other "hip" places online, and with the flourishing of things like facebook and twitter, it's somewhat amusing to see "civilians" catch a little of that drift now and then. USENET trolls (and even some of the more normal regulars) are just a more antiquated version of the /b/tards of 4chan and other odd collectives you can stumble across. Don't get me wrong, I, like you enjoy the Ripley's Believe It Or Not Museum quality of this place, and find myself gawking at the freaks as well but at the same time, there are other places to find amusement. I prefer places where I can exercise a modicum of control over the content. I have my hands full doing our promotions on top of the shows, so that eats up a majority of my online time. We're playing several times a month and catering to the 35 - 50 year old corporate "biker" guys who have their weekends free to play Easy Rider and want to hear that music.
