    He's not an ex poster, his account was locked by request. He'll be back. You can put money on that.

    For all you know, the name you linked to is his real name. The BBS link would certianly suggest it is. I never learned that name from WF until you posted it.

    That's releasing personal information surely.

    More evidence that the rules don't apply to you, eh Eva?

    You been in chrage for only two days and already you're abusing your position - and you can't even be bothered to pay the fucking bills!

    What if it's his RL first name?

    Remember, you were the one who argued that someone's RL identity could be determined from his initials...at least when it was me posting the initials. Every time I bring that up, you either dismiss it as being "in the past" (and, by implication, not worth discussing) or you just vacate the thread.

    So now if someone asks to have his account locked, it's okay to reveal anything or everything about him? Or is that only if it's you doing it?

    From the WF page on Facebook....

    I give it a week before he comes back under a new name. It's taken him less than a day to seek attention on FB, despite supposedly not caring.


    (Incidently, before anyone says about posting FB stuff on here being against the rules, there is no new personal info in this, and it was posted on the WF page, rather than on his timeline).

    His "mom" posts on a site associated with one of his previous user names. Very revealing.

    Yeah. "Mom" is how I'd put it. :rolleyes:

    Seriously, people, what the flying fuck is your obsession about him? :jayzus:
    Yes, skin's posts can be aggravating, particularly when he throwing the bolding, underlining and italics around, but you guys really must let it get to you to some degree for you to latch on and go at him like you have, all under the guise of laughing and being amused at his shenanigans. It really says a bit about you guys, particularly Chup and Faceman, whom I will single out because of the AVs you two have sported (and Chup, you're still sporting). That irks me for a couple reasons, one, skin's asked that you take them down, and since I'm not willing to spend my time to dig around when or how, I'll assume he's done so in his trolling manner, two, he's gone to the staff about it, and you two took up the game of lawyerball, three, it's annoying for me as I'm skimming through a thread and seeing his pic as your avatars on a post and it taking me more than a few seconds as I'm scroll-wheeling through that it's not him writing that post but you two knuckleheads.

    You guys (everyone here) should be better than this. I don't fucking care in what forum skin originally posted the pics; it's obnoxious. I don't fucking care how obnoxious or what tales he's spun here in the Red Room; your reactions (staff included) have been subpar, especially to his comment in Help Desk that he doesn't troll outside the Red Room. Guess what, from what I've seen, that holds true. Please, someone prove me wrong and find an instance where he's trolled outside of the Red Room so I can stand corrected.

    There's been too much PI revealed (both borderline and outright) as of late. Everyone should know better than that, especially those on staff. There've been an inconsistent enforcement of rules, resulting in threads being moved into the Red Room favor of actually dealing with the trolls in question in the threads. What the fuck, really?

    At this point, should skin return with another handle, good. You guys seem to deserve him.

    For fuck's sake. :jayzus:

    -----
    An aside to Sokar: Temper your smiley rep bombs a tad. If rules (feh) are to be more consistently applied, just reminding you that Aquehonga's been slapped down in the past for that. I know: You probably don't care, lol

    Bikenden, do you not realise that the first step to making this board a little better is to show those who consider themselves king of trolls with very big mouths, that really they are nothing by people who need to project agression online to compensate for the gaps in their own lives.

    Stuff like this hopefully gives the likes of John Castle a little clue that acting like a twat for popularity's sake really doesn't achieve much.

    If civility is what is desired, sometimes it takes tough love. Most people here have been trolled to shit in some form or another. If he wants to play the big lad but can't take it in return, fuck him.

    Bull shit. If he's really a problem, ignore him. It's what the scroll-wheel on your mouse is for. If you don't have one, use your fucking Page Down key.

    Also, I take issue with the phrase 'do you not realise that the first step to making this board a little better'. That sets off warning bells of an agenda, and it's not your call to make or enforce; at any rate, running him off doesn't really make the board better for me as a whole.

    btw, Bickendan.

    Ever consider you're describing and preaching to yourself?

    Cuz making the board better has nothing to do with silencing those you deem trolls. Don't forget your definition allows for you being deemed a troll as well. Are you a nothing too?

    We tried that with you, Shinji, but you just whined about how Lanz should sell you the board so you could rule it like the despot you accuse him and Tamar of being and threatened to leave. And now you claim to be acting for the entire board, how cute.

    I don't owe shit to the people here, who have proved pleasurein the pain of my life is more important to them than civility or friendship (thank god for some old friends off here who aren't like that).

    This place is now what I choose to get out of it. Tried normailty and sensibility when I came back. All I saw we're sad little trolls. Therefore I elect to debate when I choose and call people on their shit when I choose (skin, Tamar, you cabal of brown nosers).

    Real question is, how sorry for skinofninjadonut do you feel? Kiss his arse on FB if you're worried about him.

    For the record, no one asked me to take his Av down, as he believes on FB. I took it down voluntarily after it became apparent the wind up toy had reached critical mass.

    El Chup and skinofevil are the same thing.

    They are here to troll and nothing else.

    skin is still trolling...he doesn't give a rat's ass about anything that has happened here, it's purely about winding people up and getting them to dance to his tune. He did it for more than a decade at Wong's Palace and he's trying to do it here...get rules changed, tighten shit up, make places miserable for shits and giggles.

    He locked his account because he knows I not only know what he's doing but I'm not going to play. So now it's play victim and hopefully outrage people at the unfairness of it all and still manipulate the board.

    If you think skin was using his real name or anything close while at Wong's you are fooling yourself. He was calling Wong at home and threatening his kids...do you think he'd give Wong even the tiniest clue on how to find out who he really is? He's an asshole but he isn't completely stupid.

    And Chup, at least you clarified that this is all about you and you don't really give a shit about the board, not that it was a mystery to begin with, but kudos for honesty.

    No.

    Even though his account's locked? How?

    So you're saying you know for an absolute fact that "Danny" is not in any way his real name...even though you've said elsewhere that he's got so many personae there's no way of knowing. Which is it?

    And if - as you claim - someone's RL identity can be magically determined by mere initials, how much easier must it be if you know his entire first name! :soma:

    So now apparently he's gone for less than 24 hours and everything's fair game. Not just what's available online, but unverifiable "I know something you don't know" libel.

    Very nice.

    Do you have any proof that skin took shit to real life. If so his account should never be unlocked. He's always been a non-contributing zero, but kinda cute in a downs kid kinda way. If he's crossed the line into real life fuck-o then he is not the kind of person I want to be around. I'm sure there are a few others who feel similar.

    If there is proof.

    That last sentence being the operative concept. "Tamar says so" doesn't constitute proof in any reality. Curiously, she had no problem banning Ted, but if she's really known this about skin for over a decade...

    I'm sure it never happened. Either Danny lied about it, or Tamar is making it up to troll us.

    If it's true, then yeah...I'm gonna have to re-think if I want to be on here or not.
