The common flame by the board trolls have the same theme playing in the background. Think of Barbra Streisand and Neil Diamond or some other sappy duo and you’ll have a nice image. The rhythm never changes and the whiny-butt voices never stop.
The piece opens with a wild burst of offensive language and self-importance. Boasts of superiority and skills are often made with huge crescendos. Pieces of game conversation(s) are sampled and added to the song to support whatever melody they are trying to create. Don’t bother trying to sing the entire song, only a parody will allowed!
Magically, we hear the chorus chime in, all in harmony with each other. They sound off notes of praise for the folks posting the flames, all the while knowing that one hand washes the other. But what’s that? Do I detect a note of fear in their posts? Hark! It’s a little trill in the back being stifled by the fear that grips them! They know too well (as they are often trolls themselves) that if they post any note of discord the pack will descend upon them and devour them with more (you guessed it!) posts.
Most importantly the music plays on a state owned channel. This means the public can not protest the constant playing of Barbra and Neil, that they want a real message board with real music. All voices of discontent are stifled. (This years version of “You can’t ignore me or block me, I’m a powerful moderator! Take that!”)

In Summary:
The QCDN trolls have all lost perspective. The game was not created as a place for you to find your identity or well being. It was created as a toy, you remember those don’t you? They are something to enjoy.
I don’t think the original creators of QCDN conceived the board as a weapon to use against other human beings to make you feel superior. I believe the original intent was as a useful resource. I’m saddened that so many of you playing the game have nothing to live for outside of the game, and use the board for your own vices. Do yourselves a favor and unplug your gaming device/PC. You all are way too uptight and bloated with self-importance over a G A M E. This board means nothing and you won’t become famous here. In the grand scheme, it’s bits of data that have no impact. The sun continues to shine and the earth continues to spin while you rant, rave, spit and fume over not getting whatever it is you believe you must have to feel complete.
Remember, SE made us all depend on each other to accomplish the in game goals. There’s a reason for that.
And on that note, see you in game. I hope to see you there having a good time.

The Harpy (I love my new nickname!)
(Yeah, this could have gone in Good Times, but since I won't be back to this board it really doesn't matter does it?)
