Hey, I just now noticed you weren't on LJ anymore. When I get back to my net I'm going to have to get your blog feed. But yes, I enjoy a good net tradition. I'm sad that the original goatse.cx got taken down. It should've been preserved as a historic landmark. 'First!' was something I never got. And it seems to get worse as sites grow in popularity. Get 2-3 commenters per post? No first. A dozen? Maybe once in a while. A hundred? Then you get POTATO POTATO POTATO. I totally don't get it. Second Post!

That's some pretty big achievement right there. All in all, it's downright obnoxious, but so are the people who flood in to defend and congratulate. If perhaps, we denied those people the attention they are clearly seeking, they might eventually go away. "Don't feed the trolls" a sign should proclaim.
