DFRA
Apparently, the report link we introduced isn’t working properly, because we received a number of comments on the last post complaining about a user, whom you’d reported, but wasn’t on our radar. We are looking into where the issue is and will hopefully have a fix soon.
Based on your tips, we found a number of accounts which appear to belong to the spammer in question and have disabled all his accounts. “His?”, you might be thinking, “way to assume”. Don’t be so quick to judge though, because I didn’t just ban all his accounts. I did some sleuthing too. And the spammer’s name is…. I’m not actually going to say, that would be whack. However, I am considering adding a clause to the site’s terms – If we catch you spamming or trolling, we can publish any and all information we can uncover about you. Not seriously, but that could be amusing.
Somebody claiming to represent the anonymous organization (ironic, no?) that goes by DFRA posted this in the comments yesterday
I’d prefer to do this near the beginning of a new post so more people see it, but this’ll have to do. ATTENTION MLIAers! Due to recent events involving a member of the DFRA being brought to our attention, I’m coming here now to tell you that the DFRA itself has in no way initiated or condoned the spamming that took place here earlier today, and for the past while. This was the work of an individual (and overzealous) member that decided to use the DFRA to spam and troll MLIA despite the fact that we have nothing against this site or its commenters. The member in question is being reviewed and action WILL be taken against them. They’ve yet to hand over their formspring or MLIA to the DFRA, but will do so shortly (within the next day or so). We apologize for any and all inconveniences that they have caused.
I salute DFRA’s commitment to only troll for good and I hope they are submitting their “Best of” to helpfeedthetroll.com, so everybody can enjoy their finest work.
Update: I forgot to mention that mlia.com now redirects to mylifeisaverage.com. We are working on a more practical use for the domain, but for now it will take you to the MLIA homepage.
MEK,
thanks for using your very priceless time to sort this issue out. I wish I was better with words. You rock, Love, Me.

I vote you post their first name and random embarassing personal details.
And yeah sorry KG, but I have ownership of Mek’s seed.

Mek would never cheat on me.

Mek, do you have any brothers? apparently Circafan owns you.

MEK! In case you don’t get my comment on the last post, a great sidebar link would be http://www.venganza.org/ I have a feeling you will love it.

Sadly, I missed seeing this user’s pathetic attempt at amusing himself. Too bad, too. I love trolls. They’re so cute!

Excelent!
Also, that helpfeedthetroll.com that was linked has *so* many 4chan things in it. Not only links to 4chan itself, but also crap that they do, like the chat roulette thing with the kids. Those were gifs with /b/tards behind it. The Yahoo answers stuff is probably mostly them too. Not to say it’s not funny, but still.

Hm, I guess I haven’t really been on in a while, but I have no idea what the DFRA is. But no matter, Mek, good job. You’re a smart lad.

My Rap For Mek:
Mek! – He doesn’t need his name up in lights
He just wants to be heard whether it’s the beat or the mic. He feels so unlike everybody else, alone. In spite of the fact that some people still think that they know him. But fuck em, he knows the code. It’s not about the salary. It’s all about reality and making some noise. Making the story – making sure his clique stays up. That means when he puts it down GK’s picking it up! Let’s go! Who the hell is he anyway? He never really talks much. Never concerned with status but still leaving them star struck. Humbled through opportunities given despite the fact. That many misjudge him because he makes a living from his website. Put it together himself, now the picture connects. Never asking for someone’s help, or to get some respect. He’s only focused on what he wrote, his will is beyond reach. And now it all unfolds, the skill of an artist

I think Fort Minor might have something to say about the originality of “your” rap, but I like this version better than theirs.

Shh! Don’t tell! And I agree; mine is much better.
