The only ban that I know of was the month long ban when he was a douche to that pet guy and had to apologize. Was there something else he got banned for after that?
I miss him - if only as a beacon, a shining example to all the pathetic trolls we're now stuck with - of what a truly committed troll can accomplish.
The trolls we have today really put no effort into their schtick. Trolling is an art, and TFP was its Michelangelo.
We don't even have Heller to poke fun at these days. Now I'm getting all emotional.
EDIT: That said, I voted "I am a mod and I do not miss him" because I think it's how we would have wanted me to vote.
Speaking of Heller...is he just banned, or did he actually end up in jail?

He was the best troll on here for a little bit.
The Glenn Beck of ATOT.
Still I don't miss. Fuck him. Trolls are a dime a dozen.

If we could get rid of some current trolls and bring him back, you'd appreciate the difference.
Seriously.
Ideally we'd get rid of all of them but ideally Kate Beckinsale would dress like a vampire and blow me but that ain't gunna happen either.
I would never wish for any troll back. Just hope that we can slowly weed them out.

Everybody knows this?
QFT, TFP we need you!I don't even consider him a troll. Especially later on in his career, far more people would laugh at the incredible wit contained within his postings, and the only people that actually took offense to him were human failures. He would satire the stereotypical Apple fan, among other personalities known to annoy your typical forum goer, but he had a great sense of moderation, and unlike virtually every other troll in existence, feeding him didn't usually do anything. A certain new member of this forum is a far better troll in that he can consistently rile people up for pages upon pages, but theflyingpig is undoubtedly the better forum member and human being.
