Yes I have. If by "Archive Trolling" you mean read 11.5 years of a daily strip in a week and a half.
Fun stuff.

heh. And here I thought mebbe you'd just been reading it since it started.

[Neonivek]

You should read more closely he said Archive Trawling not trolling

The difference is that Trolling is mean and Trawling means your hauling

[Granite26]

[Neonivek]

Ehhh if he meant Trolling he would have said Trolling.

[Sowelu]

"trolling" as used on newsgroups was originally taken from the fishing term, in the context of "fishing for a response".  It's still valid for any time you're wandering the depths of something murky.

It is hopeless to get this thread back on track I tried

I think ever since Toady made the list... people have treated that as this thread... and treated this thread like it is the "Random stupid stuff" thread.

Sorry, I was "Archive Binging" and I mistyped/Freudian-slipped trawling.
On the subject of archive binging, I just finished El Goonish Shive, including the fillers and NPs. I am a webcomic addict...

 Ah, forgot Adventurers! Time to boast and mock!

 But yes, 'till Toady gets off from his end of month project we don't have much a use for this thread.

I never said I was a particularly bad case, but I am indeed an addict. I also have school to go to, along with gaming, literature, and anime/manga addictions. The three things that keep my addicitions in check are:
A. Limited access at times to one or more of the above.
B. Unwillingness to spend copious amounts of money on addictions.
C. If one starts to get out of hand I can start going into withdrawal of the others.

Webcomics! Video Games! Books! Anime! Manga!
By your powers combined, I am... Captain Otaku!

[Sean Mirrsen]

What kind of lame medium are books anyway?[/tvtropes misquote]

I wonder what would the enemies of Captain Otaku be. Maybe Teletubbies?

[umiman]

His arch enemy would be the rich, smart, handsome kid with the incredible social life and is loved by all.

There's also Mr. Society, The Parents Duo, and Lord Censorship.
