And of course, there’s “On Sabbatical”, but that’s only because we don’t want to think that posters who asked to be locked out are “banned”.

:: prepares to be slapped by Lady Godiva if he’s wrong ::

There was a poster who kept getting banned under different screen names who came back once as 2Sexy4MyComputer.

She lasted all of, like, 20 posts, I think.

And when she was summarily dismissed, the words under her name, instead of “BANNED”, read:

too stupid for words.

A search, just FWIW, turned up nothing. My guess is either the posts were later deleted or the threads have gone to that big archive box in the sky, in which case I have NFC how to get at 'em.

No more creative custom titles for Serlin socks?

I generally only do it if I really want to make a point and I think that I can make the regular posters laugh. For instance, I was the one who changed 2Sexy4mycomputer’s title to Too Stupid To Live. Everyone seemed to get a kick out of it.

Sez who?

😉

In any case, I’m pretty sure that 2Sexy4MyComputer was a “he” not a “she”.
