c) That finally people in this forum are smart enough to detect your

Graham, I'm not sure how long you have been around here - but googling 
for Ilias in general and specificly in this group will reveal that he 
often posts spiteful & inflammatory messages and has a tendency to get 
cross with open source projects. It's debatable if he can be called a 
troll - but he surely is a nuisance best let alone, so he doesn't gain 
traction.
