RE:Vandalism at fishing spots?

Patrick , you have been well behaved here. People have noticed. Don't let someone bait you into spoiling that. It may seem important to you now but to the rest of the people here a little graffitti is not the end of the world. Just get another marker and scribble it out.
The more emotionally you react to people teasing you online , the more you invite more teasing. Is it right? no but that's the way it is. YOU have made a colorful name for YOURSELF in the past. As a result of that , people will keep ribbing you as long as they think it will get a rise out of you. At some point you have to learn to ignore it or it will go on forever.
All he said was "It sounds funny to me"...Big Deal!! Instead of overreacting and escalating things with #^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^& , you could just try using humor yourself to defuse things. Or you could just ignore things. I honestly think that gets people more frustrated than anything. Eventually they will leave you alone.
One last thing is that this response from "guest" is exactly what we don't want on any of the fishing boards. Done anonymously cause that person knows nobody will tolerate that kind of thing. Anonymous threats. Very cowardly. Very stupid.
