It sure wasn't a blatant troll; that's what makes Wassercrats so effective. And maybe if people could be trusted to stop responding to him (and I'm not saying this from the high horse; I caved a few times myself), then the root node could have stood.

There is a time for everything. There is a time to be patient and to mentor, and a long time it is, and there is a time to make judgements.

Makeshifts last the longest.
