How do you react when you spot a Freeper on DU?

1. It's like a "Name that Tune" episode

I can smell that Freeper in five posts!

I love to toy with them...they're so obvious. :evilgrin:

[Padraig18]

2. And they think they're so clever.

They stand out like sore thumbs.

:P

3. I can smell that freeper in four post.

5. lol

it is fun....but i usually mess with them a little, then hit alert.

[Richard Steele]

4. I almost always just hit 'alert'....

...and send a simple 'alert' message like "freeper troll".

I always feel a little self-conscious about hitting 'alert', because I'm such a (relative) newbie...

6. I usually chortle to myself and say

"Hah! Those DUmmies will never spot me so easily!"




Aw, damn - did I post that out loud?

7. I laugh and wonder when the stupid fucks are going to discover Spell Check

8. Spelling and Grammar are the dead giveaways!

10. lol - I actually point out where it is - but that still doesn't

seem to help!

[Rabrrrrrr]

9. I grab their IP then destroy their hard drive

[Dave Reynolds]

11. Other

I never get to see anything but the "Deleted message" post.

waaaahhhh

:cry:

12. You'll catch on - you'll learn all the typical freeper phrases and

how they post.

My favorite: "I hate Bush as much as anybody, but...." Oh and "I have this coworker/aunt/friend/brother who is a freeper, what do I tell him/her about __________________?"

Oh and you can always smoke em out on the gay/lesbian threads because they think gays/lesbians recruit and they think that it's common knowledge. - Happy Troll Hunting.... :hi:

13. I make a mad dash onto Google image

and try to get something witty posted before someone else zaps them. I rarely get to do the honors myself, since I'm busy thinking up something funny.


man.... maybe I should venture into GD:politics and go hunting!

14. I try to keep them around as long as possible.

It's fun to argue with them. I never alert on anyone, I don't see the point.
