The only statements 'up' are statements by Sandman that DO NOT say what you claim they say and your distortions of what he wrote and that you still haven't been able to...
1. Obfuscation ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This is a trolls main weapon. Most trolls are not very good debaters or have very good or compelling arguments, so it's of outmost importance that they are well versed in obfuscation instead. This is mainly noticeable when their "opponents" say something that has even the slightest chance to be misinterpreted. So even if this misinterpretation is the most far fetched on can think of, it's naturally the only valid way it could possibly be interpreted according to the troll. A fine example of this is in one of Steve Carrolls posts which was a reply to CSMAModerator (a periodic poster that posts quotes that point out the number of people that has said unfavorable things about Michael Glbutter. Steve Carroll posted this reply 1 to the original post and quite clearly only quoted one quote and stated that he was the author of that quote.

11. Insults ---------------------------------------------------------------------- When the troll can't respond with actual arguments, he will more often than not respond with insults and personal attacks. By insulting the "opponent", the troll hopes to divert attention away from his lack of argument and to start an argument over the insult instead.
