Moo! The Musings of a Plaid Cow

I’m of two minds about the requirement of Topix to identify their posters. (See Texas judge orders site to identify anonymous trolls, flamers.)

1. Before the Indy Star switched to a new system, I used to troll on the boards by taking the opposite opinion of everyone else (or what I thought would be the opposite opinion). While I did it for fun, I would like to think this stirred some useful debate. When I posted some what anonymously (as The Plaid Cow), I would not expect Topix to tell people who I was (but anyone who really wanted to find me, probably could).
2. Trolling is an art. These people are just assholes.
