Gordon Cramer has had ENOUGH!!!!!

GC has had it with you trolling bastards, had enough of Trolls calling people narcissistic plagiarists, schizophrenic and generally mentally unstable. Had enough of Trolls accusing people of  Machiavellianism, sub-clinical psychopathy, behavioural aggression, moral disengagement, social dominance orientation and reduced behavioural inhibition anxiety.. GC knows this sort of trolling behaviour sometimes has tragic consequences.

SO STOP DOING IT.
