And hopefully the moderators will indulge me a little - this is posted with a smile and a lighthearted poke of fun at ourselves (myself included).
This was posted on a message board that I own and maintain (not industry or reef related) but I laughed when I read it and it can certainly be appreciated here...

Is your message board losing its edge?
Is it tired, rundown? No longer full of board wars, flame wars and excitement? Missing the sarcastic ********** that made you all come together in the first place?
A Solution is At Hand
With.....
RENT-A-TROLL
An exciting new service designed to put the MESS back in MESSAGE Board, - and take the BORED out!
Trolls posing as legitimate members may enter the system by various stealth methods, including MEMBER ABDUCTION, and begin making UNECESSARY DIGS at people and causes held dear by the establishment.
Trolls come in various models. Our well-known ISABELLA model is an Ivy-League anorexic fashion model designed to puncture the ego of any out-of-shape or underemployed member of your board.
Our NAZI MOM MODEL is the troll who does everything better than you do, and has the additional benefit of being able to DENY any malicious intent in any of her postings.
Our ****** QUEEN model is the sarcastic gay guy, designed to stir up trouble on even the most respectful message board.
We also have a full stock of less-expensive Collaborator Models, designed to join forces with any negative influence.
SUPPLIES ARE LIMITED! ORDER NOW and put the ENERGY BACK IN YOUR MESSAGE BOARD! Dial 1-800 GET MEAN----today!
