In The Know: What Happened To Ziggles?

In The Know: Hey DFO, what happened to ZIGGLES? Have seen no hide nor hair of the poor boy-girl. (I have to admit its been nice around here lately)

DFO: Remember how Ziggles used to taunt me that I'd never guess who he was? His luck ran out on Black Thursday when he made a cross-post under another name. We found out who was behind the new pseudonym and then discovered that he shared the same IP as Ziggles. We'd developed a fairly good profile of Ziggles. For example, we knew he used a laptop and Verizon wireless card. We also knew some of the spots from which he posted. Then, there were clues we picked up along the way from what he posted here. It didn't take Blogmeister Ryan long to figure out who he was once Ryan devoted time to checking it out. I must admit I have less tolerance for trolls after dealing with Ziggles for months.
