I just wanted to thank the mods for taking care of those pesky trolls today. I didn't know how it was going to work... but you all did a bang up job of taking care of it.
Thanks... they were really annoying me.

Tracy if you look in the right hand corner of you postyou will see a warning triangle. Click on it and it generates a report to the moderators. If you type a short message about why you are reporting then we can deal with your concerns

Ok thank you. I thought I had seen something about that triangle in another post. But was not sure. I will use it in the future if needed.

I really felt sorry for the OP's whose threads got temporarily hijacked by the trolls.
Thanks to all the moderators!

It was quite obvious that they were trolls. I believe they actually did have 21 or so as their ages.
Dr.StinkPink was the only name I really remember. (I think that is right, LOL)... It stood out... anyway. Especially since we don't get a lot of doctors around here questioning what to do with a goat.
Lots of really stupid trollyish questions... gross gross gross and rude/innapropriate stuff.
It was all good though. We need a few laughs from time to time... LOL
I believe it was around noon or so (central time) when it all transpired. But like I said... the mods kicked butts. I feel sorry for those trolly's now. They seemed to vanish into thin cyperspace! LOL

This was not fun. And as has been stated they were hard and fast at work infecting legit threads. Fortunately to my eye anyway they started out with original threads and only after that spread to our threads. They were pretty easy to spot.
I do not know if there was more than one although they were signed in under several names it could have been one person. They were so fast an prolific though I wonder if it was more than one. I am sure this will not be revealed because to say this might compromise the ability to contain them next time.
This has historically been a very professional site. That is no accident. Especially given the activity on this site. A site with this level of activity invites moreons. It is a wonder we do not see this more often.
Once again THANK YOU
Tazzi, I suspect that the toll picture was of the same person who was doing this, VERY ugly.
although we moan and groan about some questionable interventions by different mods, you have to admit-
this bb is run w/a strict vision of what it will be and what it won't.
i for one, am very appreciative of its parameters.
thank you to all of you, who make this a safe place to be.:redpinkhe
