One always has to be careful - this guy could be very much for real, and we don't want to hurt his feelings
(too much).
Remember the anti-Bob backlash? Everybody loves Bob now.
Not to mention that some of our resident "principal tuba" performance majors frequently post things so asinine that one would think it was a running joke - but sadly it isn't.
Remember tuba 4 sissies? That guy was very much for real as well. Came in here, cause a ruckus, spent good money on a horn, and quit and sold it within a year.
Plus, if anyone wasn't a TubeNet regular, would they ever believe Bloke really existed?

He does???
Come on, a straight line like that just can't be passed up.

I thought he was buried in the end-zone of Giants Stadium with Jimmy Hoffa!

He's either a troll, or he's a clueless high school student. I'm right up the middle with this one.
A friend and I agree there's a good chance it's a regular's alt for trolling purposes.

I know.

I was just joking with you. I use a Mac with the built in camera.

Isn't "bigdog"s lack of post here, but posts in other sections suspicious?
Perhaps tex knows who bigdog is...

I saw you post "troll" after one of his posts too.

Pardon me for being such a n00b, but what exactly is a troll account?

Essentially, a troll is one who attempts to elicit a chorus of flames by making some sort of ridiculous statement.
By the way, I am not attempting to be a troll, here. I am not a troll, nor do I play one on TV. In fact, I have never done this, although it might be fun.

well, ok, I do have a troll account. Although anyone with an ounce of brains could figure out who it is from the ISP. And....I don't use it to troll, just experiment occasionally with being male. It's fun, hurts no one, and my alter ego has never been accused of trolling. Probably < 20 posts total.
