Doppelganger has left the building...

Dayum! I go out and play in the yard all day yesterday and miss all the fun!

I replied to Doppelganger/Roland a few times. Didn’t realize that it was him…
Just a curious thing–last time he was in nursing school and working as an aide. Called himself a nurse(ha!) etc.

Now he is pharm school after not “making it” in second year med school?

Guy DOES have an imagination…wonder how long he could have pulled that off. He failed at the pretending to be a nurse bit quite soon.
Another question–who has this kind of time? I can’t keep up with my own life, much less invent whole other ones!

Just out of curiousity, how do we know he is gone? There is no notice in ATMB, and his name still says “member,” not “banned.”

It says banned when I look at it, and there’s usually no announcement for sock puppets being banned.

wince Ouch.

Not to be dense, but *what * says banned when you look at it?

I saw "Banned"under his name in the “Girls Night Out” thread which has since disappeared. But now he’s back to member. Have the mods decided he really isn’t Roland and the similar skeevyness is just a bizarre coincidence?

I’m not seeing his name anywhere – the “why do lesbians like butch girls?” thread has now also disappeared.

According to Bosda a few posts back, he admitted to being Roland.

Being a sock, there would have been on “XXX has been Banned” post. TPTB had decided such threads for socks would amount to calling attention to them. Feeding the trolls, as it were. Also, such a thread for a sock would have probably produced a host of “How did you know?” questions.

See? I do occasionally pay attention.

But as he was a member, shouldn’t “banned” be posted under his name?

I dunno about that Zagadka is still listed as a Charter Member and he was banned back in December.

So perhaps it has something to do with “the changeover.” Because he was listed as banned for quite some time.

Same thing with vanilla

I guess the Administrators now have some kind of double-secret probation banning.

Naw, I noticed the same thing with Roland, evidently some of the old BANNED posters went back to their original, non banned status after the March 31st fix. I guess they just need to be hit with the banstick again.

I think something like this was addressed in ATMB. Something about the tables for memeber titles being set to what they were during a previous update.

Wait a sec, here it is. Someone was asking why **samclem **was listed as a Charter Member. **TubaDiva **Adresses it in post 12.

My ROLAND radar was up with a few of his posts in the last week but, I didn’t follow up on it by punching in his new name in search. The fat fuck got me answering two of his posts, and now I feel unclean. Creepy bastard. And you’re correct…yesterday it showed BANNED under his name, and today he’s back to member.

Yep. The system reset the member titles, but rest assured, the banned folks are still banned, even if it doesn’t say so under their names. They still can’t post, search, etc. We’re aware of it, and more importantly, Jerry’s aware of it, and it’s on his “to do” list.
