I have dealt with people like this recently that seem to have such a problem with you just because of the position you are in. Just delete it and move on. People like this really need help.

Next time you get a piece of cyberspace rantings and ravings, put them in the electronic garbage bin where they belong.

I'll tell you who is awesome...13 - 15 year old gamers who don't agree with a video game review you write. Yeah, they love to send vulgar insults. Although the "lobotimized turd deep in psychosis” is waaay beyond their capabilities. Usually, since they know one of us running the site is female, I just get called the B or C words a lot. No where near the imagery provided by your gasbag. I applaud it. People are great, aren’t they?

Don't get too paranoid but an intelligent check of you and your family's safety may be in order, maybe have a run through of this with some tech-savvy police type too (is there such a thing?). Look at my email address and you'll know why I suggest this type of normally paranoid thing. Probably someone you failed to call upon during a conference.

It's not that easy to spew out such vile! I think he is just jealous because you are a kind, intelligent, good looking person sharing your vast knowledge with the world and being recognised for it. I think you are cute, eloquent and admirable. Wish there were more people out there like you who's willing to help out people at the drop of a hat. And you've inspired poetry in others! How noble is that!? Hi Chris, I agree with you that he’s actually quite poetic. It’s not that easy to spew out such vile!

The scary thing about hatemail is this - usually the writer is far too thick to string a sentence or two together. This guy actually seemed to have a pretty good vocabulary. *shudder* TROLLS 2.0! *shudder* So what’s the best route of tackling trolls at present? There isn’t really one… But we can start by all sending consoling messages to the person effected. The worst thing someone can do is bottle up the problem and not tell anyone.

His comments don't change the fact that you've produced some pretty insightful stuff (I especially like the XP vs Vista "upgrade" video) Don't let the trolls put you off. Now that was cruel!

I know I made some mistakes a few years ago with a very large profile domain, but I apologized and we worked everything out. However, the blogging community still accuses of some 'scam'. I bought Drupal.Com from a squatter and gave it to Dries for FREE and got crucified. I acquired OpenAjax.Org for great personal expense and donated it to the Open Ajax Alliance, but they would not help me claim for the IRS. If it helps, I always start my day with my reader and your blog is on top of the list (next to Scoble) I get SO much hate mail about OpenDomain.Org it is ridiculous.
