I won't argue that point one bit. But it is an effective troll only
because others argue with him rather than simply discuss. Most of those
who argue with him are actually being trolls themselves, not unlike a
group gathering around a fight cheering it on, being part of the reason
to fight in the first place.

I never respond directly to him; the malicious old fool is in my
killfile. My posts are intended to inform others about his character,
history and motives, especially as he wrote to my employer insinuating I
was a paedophile in an attempt to have me sacked. He failed miserably,
by the way; they saw straight through his poison pen email for what it
was and laughed it off.

He's done a similar thing on several previous occasions, one of which
earned him a fine and a criminal conviction in court in October 2011 for
sending a malicious communication.

I agree with other posters who say the best tactic is simply not to rise
to his bait, because that is all he is doing: trolling to get a
reaction.

He's well known within the amateur radio community (for which he
laughably propounds to be an ambassador) for his activities on Usenet.

And now, by resorting to personal attacks, you yourself become the troll

In the 21 years since 1994 that I have been a subscriber to amateur radio
NGs, there
has been neither any trolls, nor the origination of personal attacks by me.

(I see that Tomlinson's one-sided mentally-unhealthy obsession continues in
the back ground. As evidence of such, has Tomlinson offered any techncial
input to the discussions?)

ROFLMAO! That's the funniest line I've heard this entire year! But
then delusional people actually believe things like this.

Making false accusations of paedophilia aside (as can be seen by from
the links posted here to national media websites where you were
prosecuted), how about when you randomly accused me of being:-

"Another warmonger aiding and abetting the murderous invasion of
Afghanistan, and thus no different to the Germans invading of Europe in
the 1930s and 1940s "#

and then...

"Anybody who aids and abets the killing of Afghanis in their own
country, especially the burning to death of women and children by
indiscriminate drone attacks, has as much blood staining their hands as
though they had fired off the fatal devices."

All because you randomly decided based upon *no* evidence whatsoever
that I was in the army. Then denied that you said it and then ran away
when you were faced with the evidence of actual post you made?

Would you like me to post the actual evidence again so that you can
ignore it again?

Andy
