I really have no idea where this attitude comes from. I don't think I've ever seen Ruined being a troll. At absolute worst, and even then I think it's stretching, he's a spammer.

Yes, he posts frequently and passionately about various technologies - sometimes in support other times against - but he always includes information, links and commentary and doesn't just resort to the kind of inflammatory language typical of trolls.

I fail to see how that kind of posting can be considered trolling. I for one appreciate the vast majority of Ruined posts. Sometimes I disagree with what he's saying, but then I usually don't read or participate further in the thread.

Above all he's a fountain of technical knowledge and an an asset to this forum. And while some of his messages have some spin to them, and maybe he's selective in his reporting, it's really not that big of a deal and certainly not trolling.

I'd argue that the posts by certain members calling Ruined on his posting style is more akin to trolling than anything Ruined's ever submtted.

But maybe that's just me.
