Well, yes - it was funny at the beginning, but then it turned into a crowd syndrome - some people started to compete in spitting on OP which looks as bad as OP's bad (outrageous, actually) manners. So, reading through it, smiley went from to to . At the end, I don't find it funny any more.
Just remember - we have had a contest topic here too, which also wasn't a particularly good idea - we started to make fun of both questions and answers which, in my opinion, had serious influence on OraFAQ Forum quality. Lucky for us, we stopped with it in time.

Never thought so many people could be fooled by what, in my view, is clearly a troll.
[Edit: hm, just saw on Tom Kyte's blog he thinks so too.. Must admit I stopped reading the OTN-forum post after 2 pages, so maybe others mentioned it as well]

That reminds me of a quote from Admiral Pellaeon in "Dark Force Rising":
Quote:
"And what happens when we've bent the rules so far that they come around and stab us in the back?"
I guess the same is true for tools, too.
