Line 65:
It took Boner and other trolls even less time to discover this. Taking the passwords, he applied these to the (then new service) Hotmail accounts of the denizens of the site, and soon everyone was receiving email from each other telling them exactly what they could do to themselves, with what, and how, with the from line signed by someone they considered a friend. This bubbled up into battles between folks who would normally be non combatants. When cooler heads finally prevailed, many of the original fans were already moving to on greener pastures.</p>

Diezel Monkey fixed the broken site, and enforced his new, more rigid policies. But Boner and other [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_troll trolls] simply took up the new challenge, changed their screen names and reentered and trashed the place again. Diezel set up password confirmation via email, but the new miracle of Hotmail and other free email sites thwarted this effort. In short, the message board was in a continual state of moderation, and things were no better than they were before.

==Gifted==
<p>On June 1998, [[Gifted]] aired, and it was once again revealed to the waiting fan base that Daria was not the smartest, most savvy inhabitant of the planet. She was not the intellectual equal of first Ted, and now she was shown to be intellectually equal or behind the students of the gifted school. In the next episode, [[Ill]] a skin rash reduces her to hiding in a bathroom stall. At this stage both Katherine and Wrath officially stopped updating their sites, with Katherine publicly lamenting the lost of quality in the show. Planet Daria remained as the one and only remaining “mega site”. Some fans starts drifting away to other fandoms, but those that remain begin to converge on the only game left in town.</p>
