I’ve just got a thing or two to say here in my defense.
Since this is the username and password the server sent to me, I used it(although I did apply for more than one username, get over it).
For you, NotThe to be judging my actions and assuming that I’m using someone’s other logins,(as you put it so simply “sock puppeting”) for, as Tuba put it “morally and intellectually wrong” purposes, without hearing my side of it is totally screwed. When it turns out that through this message board’s error I received someone else’s logins.
And if I did want to pull the wool over your oh so intellectual collective by stealing logins, why would I sign my name to it?
So, all of you(especially you NotThe), who this board is so important to…get a life, get a job, and get off of people’s backs for silly little things like this.
Oh, and try and fix the server error that still returns this login to my E-mail instead of the logins I set up(I would assume if JROGERS had his password sent to him it would send my logins to his E-mail).
Way to administrate Tuba! Doin a great job of killing people’s accounts without asking for the story.
Tuba, if you can explain all this to me so that it makes sense, and if I was wrong to accuse Sam Roza/GaWd/JRogers of sock puppetry, I will of course post an apology. Just let me know to WHOM I should address my missive.
:rolleyes:

jrogers,
It is rather common for someone here to make a controversial statement, which most people disagree with, and then recieve support from “another” user, which is really the same person. This is a violation of the rules. Often these people don’t bother to change email addresses when they register for a second account (at least not until they get experience at it). The term sock-puppet is generally used for this. It’s not really a silly little thing, as the people who do this generally do so to make a royal pain in the ass of themselves.
Basically, what it looks like is that due to some sort of mistake you made yourself look exactly like the classic sock-puppet. If you manage to get your identity worked out, and not make an ass of yourdelf, I’m sure you will be welcomed here quite warmly.
An ass of myself? It seems that you on this board have made yourselves to be total asses by jumping to conclusions about me, (and, once again) making such a silly big deal out of this.
I was not here to be a royal pain in the ass, I was here merely to understand a few things about AIDS that I didn’t quite understand.
So, whether I “appeared” to be a sock puppet or not, I have been unfairly branded as a sock puppet, and made to go through the pointless flames from you people.
NotThe…I’ll accept your apology any old time. And Don’t wait for Tuba to answer, where she was rather quick to convict me yesterday, she seems to have fallen silent…
Sam Roza
P.S.–WaterJ, I’m Sam Roza, not JRogers please have the respect to call me by my real name.
Sam Roza,
You posted under the screen name JRogers, so that’s what I called you. I usually refer to people here by screen names, since that’s often all they provide.
The intention of my post was not to make a larger deal about this, but to try to convince you that you were caught in an unfortunate circumstance, and to give us a second chance. When I mentioned making an ass of yourself (actually, I apparently wrote yourdelf), I was not at all trying to imply that you had done so, but saying that as long as you don’t, this sort of trouble is incredibly rare.
The techs aren’t sure what happened, but apparently there was some kind of glitch here. Our apologies to Sam Roza, jrogers, GaWd and to other readers of this thread. If you guys want to delete these usernames and start over, let me know.
I would like to apologize for ever having been so stupid as to accuse you of sock puppetry. How could I have been so dumb? Puppeteers are warm, friendly people, clever, inventive, artistic souls, who enjoy giving pleasure to people, and now that you are out in the light, and I can get a good look at you, I see that you are none of those things. How silly of me!
Please forgive me for this egregious blunder.
Sincerely,
Notthemama**

Thank you for your overly sarcastic apology NotThe, it touched the bottom of my heart.
Tuba, thank you also for your apology, and Ed as well(now will you unlock my GaWd username so I can stop using this guys?).
Jill, I must, myself apologize. I made the mistake of buying Duesberg’s book. After reading a few hundred pages, saw that he has written a book based personal views solely, which are unfortunately totally biased.
So this book is completely misleading, full og mis-, and dis-information.
I have since purchased the book “Viral Sex” by Jaap Goudsmit. I believe this book to be true to form, and you will most likely agree to it’s content.
Thank you for revealing the extent of my AIDS/HIV ignorance, and bringing it to an end.
