a really good (& effective) spoof would have to come off sounding like you, but changing what you say just enough to get the people who dont notice the period riled up.

coming on trying to pretend to be someone else and then being so grossly obvious as you attempt to start your flame war is a good way to get people *looking* for that period.

still, you obviously did or said something to this person to make him target your screenname, so, good job! happy
