No. You were talking about the absurdity of a concerted campaign by Entourage itself, not a lone employee posting independently. Nothing you said contradicted your statement that you were an Entourage employee; it merely ruled out a concerted campaign by Entourage itself. Other commenters got the same impression from your remarks as I did.

Given the broader context, I honestly have a hard time envisioning how a reasonable person could genuinely be confused for so long, particularly despite repeated clarification as well as an immediate correction to the original post as soon as I became aware of the error.

Immediate correction? It was two hours after you made the post and an hour and a half after my first post referencing you as an Entourage employee. I've given you the benefit of the doubt and assume you must not have seen that comment, or the subsequent ones, and not noticed your typo for the entire time, even if you seem totally unwilling to give me the benefit of the doubt. Which brings me to...

As such, IMHO, you spent the afternoon trolling plain and simple and are continuing to do so.

Funny that the one who's complaining about incivility is the one throwing out baseless accusations! Not much of a humble opinion there. This is one of those times I wish the forum rules allowed colorful language. If you're as experienced with Internet discourse as you've claimed, you would recognize that trolls don't waste time backing up what they say with rational argumentation, and your typical troll doesn't spend two months participating in the forum as a fairly average user before suddenly letting loose his or her trolling.

But I certainly can empathize with not wanting to deal with baseless accusations and distortions of the truth that are presented in a deliberate intent to harm one's reputation.

Please point me to a post that exemplifies a baseless accusation against Boris. One person asked me if I thought he was an Entourage employee and I ignored them because I wasn't interested in making accusations against individuals. Other than your subsequent defense of him, no one else even mentioned the name on the thread.
