Don't get me wrong. Rex will troll every now and then. But I don't think someone having an opinion that doesn't fit in with the community majority makes them a troll. That's just absurd.

It's not the philosophy, it's the posting style that makes him a troll. However, when he actually engages in the subject and debates issues seriously rather than just trolling for effect, he's one of the best. This board is really dull when he gets banned.

I don't know if I'm back. Just bored this evening and browsing the web.

I might stick around a little more since it's football season but I can't see myself regularly posting on this forum. It will probably result in bannage

I disagree w/ nearly everything he posts here, but if I saw him in public, I'd gladly shake his human hand.

He may be a crazy Lib, but he's OUR crazy Lib dammit.

I've met him a few times. Certainly a good guy.

He's an obvious troll, I'm surprised some haven't caught on yet. He uses common buzzwords and themes to attract attention. It's always divisive to rile folks up. I just ignore them, they turn into a shitstorm anyway

What?

Imo, this board is one of the least moderated in all of TD and they very rarely, if ever ban anybody on this board for post quality purposes. If it happens, it's a short ban. If they're keeping Rex around, they'll be keeping the conservative trolls like SEC around too.

They should pay Rex. He's the capital equivalent of you and almost every other so-called decent conservative not-named BHP, NC, NH, Pettifoggerer, Rogertheshrubnuts, COLWolhound, and NT74bignuts combined.

Some artistic license was taken there. But you 21yo wannabe Ayn Rands just rub me the wrong way.

Rex is an attention whore and the proof of that is his dog head videos.

I don't think Rex is a troll. I like Rex, he is fearless on this board.

Maybe he already is?

That could be the only explanation.

It would honestly be awesome if he was really doing this for free.

I'm older than that bro.

But anyway, it's because this board was one big reason I had to find out what small gov't conservatism really meant. I've come a long way from the neocon fundy bible thumper I used to be.

Several years ago Rex was a pretty formidable debater on this board. Now he vacillates between outright trolling and being completely unhinged.

I respected him back in the day, I can't say I do now. If he has changed the way he conducts himself here just for shits and giggles, more power to him. If not, he's got issues.

Any PT old timers remember several years ago when Rex was interviewed on a local news station? This had to have been 8 years ago or so.

He was bitching because he thought a few bricks in the wall of a public school were in the shape of a cross.
