I hope the lad hasn't been frightened off.

I'm interested to see how 'high up the wall' he got.

t'other fella looks like a troll to my Admin/Mod eyes. Not that I'm an Admin or a Mod on here like, just from previous experience elsewhere on the interweb ...

I'd have banned him off my board ...

Even if its a troll, you don't troll PI :-)

I would imagine it's because: (a) you're here long enough to know that sort of useless off-topicness doesn't fly in PI, troll or not; (b) you're supposed to report a troll like that, just in case it's not a troll, and; (c) funny and all as I think the idea of bottling sperm for sale on eBay is, not everyone has the sense of humour of a 13-year-old boy.

So what?
Sometimes even if a thread in PI is a troll, the advice can still help others.
It clearly states in the charter that if you have a problem, report it.
It clearly states in the charter that you do not make comments in PI that are unhelpful and off topic.
Your answer in that thread was what you'd expect in AH.
You broke the charter.
You got banned.
Thaed was not out of order, you were.
