Subject: SCOX Case Eviscerated, Trolls go WILD!!

Having had their case gutted like a fish by Judge Wells, SCOX is effectively *doomed*.

<< Judge Brooke Wells said that she was limiting SCOs case because it had failed to provide specificity on the numerous items. In other words SCO has not been able to meet the level of detail required by the Court.

As the Judge put it if an individual was stopped and accused of shoplifting after walking out of Neiman Marcus, they would expect to be eventually told what they allegedly stole. It would be absurd for an officer to tell the accused that "you know what you stole I'm not telling.">>

This loss has prompted a flurry of trolls to appear on the YSCOX message board, the latest one being some sick, racist retard named microselfish, who has been *very effective* in creating noise on the board with his hot button flame bait. Tireless, has spent the entire weekend laying piquant coilers at intervals, which invariably invoke a flurry of responses from his compliant victims, despite repeated attempts by others to get them to stop. This has resulted in page after page of garbage pushing posts about SCOX's loss beyond reach.

Before him was bardwick, who coyly maintained his What if? thread for some time.

This was preceded by a miniature Grokwar, courtesy of AllParadox, who is writing a book, looking to ca$h in on his Groklaw infamy.

His immaculately timed marketing manouvre also muddied the waters during what should have been a universally happy time.

I know this: real trolls attack in waves, and they do not operate alone.
<< Typically, we use between two and five Waves of attack. Waves will generally break down into this kind of structure:
a: Reconnaissance (RECON): These people will go in early and usually set up camp as "friends of the newsgroup". They will become trusted and participate by joining previous discussions or starting non- controversial ones themselves. They will also act as "double-agents" to counter-flame the other waves as the invasion progresses. They key is building a bit of credibility.
b: Wave One: Wave one will usually be what starts the flame war. Those involved in this wave can go on and each have a different flame, or go on and flame in unison. They can bring in a subject of their own or flame a previous discussion. What matters is that this initial wave will be the one that the invaded newsgroup will have their attention on. This wave calls for extreme subtlety. The quality of the flame MUST be at its highest point here.
c: Wave Two: Wave Two will consist of tactics to attack the people who were sent in as recon and attempt to start totally new flame threads. The key here is that even if we attack a group of people restrained enough to resist our flame-bait, wave two will stir things up and get others to join in.
d: Wave Three: Wave three will generally change depending on the campaign, but will generally be added to push the confusion and chaos over the top. Flame the recon, flame the first wave, flame the second wave. These guys are our balls out, rude SOB's. Mop up and clean out. Sometimes (usually with bigger groups) Wave three will simply be along the lines of a wave two. We will call for a wave four (or five) to be the balls out routine. We will sometimes add a wave or two because depending on the size and intelligence of a newsgroup.>>

A *million* laughs, baby!

Seemingly your bagholders don't read the IT Trade press... but they *do* read the regular press, and even your most clueless bag-holders have figured out that having your claims pitched as *garbage* three years into a lawsuit, but before any actual trial begins, doesn't suggest that your case is quite as easy a slam-dunk as you'd told them. Do you suppose they'll be suing your a**?

TWO TEH MOOOM!

Subject: Judge:Damages Nominal Even if SCOX Wins

<< according to the judge, damages may become nominal instead of in the billions. Or, it may be possible that the code comprising a method or concept was already disclosed pursuant to some other licence such as the BSD Licence.

"Since Linux uses some BSD code this could have a substantial impact on SCO's case," she said.>>
