   I've had larbgai killfiled and been ignoring him for quite some time   
   now. From all reports, he still posts as much as ever and, no doubt,   
   still says as little as ever. Since the object of largai's lust no   
   longer posts in SCT, I think your point is unproven. Anyway, I think he   
   misses Steve Kramer dreadfully, as do all the trolls!

   I would like to see dickwads like Gregg providing no backslapping for   
   the trolls and others to not cite troll responses in their replies. That   
   would be a great start to "starving" the trolls. That has been my   
   position in the past and will remain my position.

   What "ol' timers"??? I count 3 or 4 that I recognise and one of those   
   only by his writing style since he wisely uses another identity since   
   becoming a troll target in the past. SCT in no way resembles the forum   
   it once was. Between the trolls, the Burmese and the Lao, there's hardly   
   an on-topic Thai related discussion in the place. Certainly there are a   
   few valiantly trying to bring SCT back to what it once was but I wish   
   them luck. They will certainly need it.

   Oh, so you can speak, read and write Vietnamese then? That's about the   
   only way you could gain enough experience to describe the activities in   
     "Soc.Culture.Vietnamese" as a shining example of a discussion forum.   
   You might actually find that some of the younger foreign born Vietnamese   
   using some English words where they don't know, have forgotten, or   
   simply don't care to use the Vietnamese equivalent but it won't be   
   enough for you to get the gist of the discussion. I just looked in on   
   one discussion on computer video resolution. Quite interesting how they   
   swap from English to Vietnamese and back again. Since it's a technical   
   discussion, I'm not surprised at the use of English as there may be no   
   Vietnamese equivalent or it may simply be easier to use the English version.

   SCT users "allowed" their forum to be hijacked whilst SCV users do not.   
   Big difference.
