    No, the original argument died instantly. The new argument was that I couldn't write Shakespeare.

    Um, no, those are very related concepts. Seems you can't read 21st century language either. An idiot and a liar. :techman:

    If @markb hurries up, he can set up an ultimatum just before the staff fulfils it!

    The software needs to be fixed so that you can be banned.

    We did manage to truncate his name. That's a step in the right direction. The ban utility is otherwise pretty solid -- the unbanning is actually automatic, no need to lift a finger on that.

    His ban will be over tomorrow, but he says he won't come back until Gul steps down.

    For all his bleating about previous admins, notably Tamar, picking sides, he's surprisingly butthurt to be held to the same standard as everyone else, including the three (!) times we've banned WAB this year for posting his info and trying more sneaky ways to get away with it.

    No way of knowing for sure, but I imagine his attitude is, it was done to him in the past, therefore he has the right to do it to anybody else.

    Nevermind the ownership change. Nevermind the penalties against WAB.

    Given how long he held the trolling about his fiancee over the board's collective head, that wouldn't surprise me.

    Perhaps he was lying, a concept you should be most familiar with.

    So he was lying to his wife and writing partners?

    I was also chat buddies and Farmville neighbors with RDM's real life next door neighbor. Her son was a descendant of Keith Moon, but I'm not sure if she was his daughter or if things were more complicated than that, which was her implication.
