I don't know if anyone else is getting the same treatment, but there is somebody trolling the Shout Box by using a variation of my name and spamming conversations with nonsense or mimicing posts. I don't respond or even acknowledge his/her presence, but it is highly annoying, and has happened twice today already.

I banned the IP of the last one and was about to ban the IP of the first one as well but they had some valid stuff to say as well. I'll keep a close watch over them.

Sorry about that HC. I noticed earlier but they quit just in time.

They didn't really ever say anything, actually. It was either always "lallalallalalala" type stuff, or just parroting my last comment. (Which is a lot like saying nothing, too. wink) It's just that they always posted as "Headcheese2" or "Headcheese." 

 

Ignoring them takes away their whole reason for existence, so that's what I typically do.

They became a troll by using his name pretending to be him. The lalala in itself isn't that bad. As long as they don't do it too many times.
