The Enemy: A nameless fourteen year old troll who discovered the hidden Pierre Tremblay board and who with his accomplices mass reported every post on that board to IMDB administration, who failed to look at the posts being reported and deleted every one of them. Also most likely responsible for preventing the IMDB rating for "Brokeback Mountain" from including it among IMDB's top 100 films (though it was there for a short period of time).
That is just so unconscionable. I blame imdb almost as much as the trolls themselves. Sure, I understand why they can't check every single report, but to ignore a huge mass of them and act -- or to let their software act, or however it works -- against the complaints of the participants is ridiculous.
However, the troll wars (at this point, I suppose you might call them the troll skirmishes) are still being fought within Brokiedom's borders, on the imdb front. It's horrifying, but I'm glad there are still intrepid Brokies, both veterans and newbies, who are willing to fight them. Even though, IMO, they should be ignoring them.
OK, I guess that isn't totally consistent logic, is it? I guess I mean there are veterans and newbies intrepid enough to post ANYWAY, because the function they perform is still really crucial.
