Graa! The link above is the pit rules as set out by the moderator.

Nayh! Nobody expects you to show class.:rolleyes:

My most hated reply involved the phrase “Nits make lice”, referring to Palestinian children. No, I do not think that Palestinian children deserve to die just because they are Palestinian. But when I read this:

I couldn’t resist. I caught so much shit for the inflammatory “nits make lice” comment, while these fucking dimwits REALLY support suicide attacks?

I don’t think that anyone here actually wants children to be killed. But that will be the result as long as the Palestinians and Israelis attack each other.
How can we know what anyone “really” believes as long as some tell the truth about their opinions and others don’t?
Oops! Sorry, Clint. That sarcastic face was supposed to be a grin.
That wasn’t meant seriously.
I don’t actually give false opinions, but in the case of the “nits make lice” comment, I was offended by the “Support Palestinian Guerillas” thread.
Rather than personally attack the poster (which is worse IMO), I posted the exact opposite opinion. Clearly, posts intended just to piss people off are not discouraged in the Pit, thus the “Clint in Wichita is a Jackass” thread.
I’m serious about apologizing. Once this thread dies down, I intend to be much more selective about which threads I post in, and what I say.
Not because of pressure or intimidation, but because I am admittedly wrong.
Oops!
I just realized that I left my computer with this site displayed, and my wife (I know…the poor girl, right?) registered under “Bowpepe”. I accidentally posted under her username.
If he wasn’t being serious, then I wouldn’t take his apology serious.

Maybe I’m reading this wrong, but are you saying you are CLint in Witchita? That is a bannable offense, stated in the rules.
Is it jus me or is bowpepe postinng as Clint…I might be a little confused…but maybe someone else sees what I see?

Sorry for the confusion.
damn hamsters…I was fast this time too…really
Anyway…who wants to start the countdown?
Countdown to what?
I must say that I saw the same thing Aslan saw and likely the same thing an Admin may see in the next few minutes/hours. Having a sock-puppet, as was already stated, is a bannable offense.
Generally, when I find the same poster using two screen names, I ban both names, no questions asked. In this case, I refreshed the screen, to see if any explanation was offered. Good thing that I did, too.
We don’t allow sock puppets on this board.

My wife was logged in with her name, and I didn’t even know she had registered.
I explained what happened immediately.
Someone is bitching for the sake of bitching.
Hey now, cut some slack. He did say that it is his wife’s account. I have one o’ them, and I can see how it can happen. He also posted immediately to apologize. Clint, a quick fix is to use a different browser than your wife. hyperjes is an IE type of girl, whereas I’m a Netscape/Mozilla man. Don’t count down on him yet, he actually seems to be trying.
I might have been a little to quick on the draw…It CAN happen and if I’ll be the first to admit if I’ve been proven wrong. I’m always willing to give someone a chance, but at the same time I can still harbour some doubts. I’ll just be silent about them.
Yeah, I wonder who…
:rolleyes:
Well, his wife certainly picked an interesting time and method of joining the board. And while I’ve made the same error with my kid’s username, the juxtaposition here certainly raises my eyebrows.
Well, I didn’t see your message. I do however still have the same doubt that Qadgop the Mercotan has.
[hijack of awesomeness]
Qadgop, what’s your son/daugther’s SN?

What is suspicious? If you read what was typed, it’s obvious that I wasn’t trying to fool anyone.
The suspicion is, clint, that you created a sock to join the discussion, then posted in your clint persona, forgetting you were signed in as the sock. Belatedly realizing that, you had to justify what happened.
Now I’m not saying that’s what you did. But it surely gives the appearance of you having done that. Occam’s razor, and all that.
