It appears so, unless I am confused, which is not difficult.

:dubious: Nice try, **drmark2000** , but we’ve been around the block a few times. Going five years into the past and registering an account with a similar username is the oldest trick in the book. Denying any connection between the two accounts just makes you look even more guilty.
Next time you try to play us for chumps, remember who you’re dealing with.
Now where’s that ban button?

I, for one, am still waiting for **Tuba** to clarify her remarks to **catsix**.
I may be waiting for quite a while.

Same, same. Even tho I enjoy the witty banter that this thread is devolving towards, this is the reason I keep checking back. Perhaps a new thread, specifically addressing the post in question? Since it is, after all, a question about Mod/Admin actions…

As if **Tuba** would actually post to such a thread. She seems to have a complete Napoleon complex, and doesn’t understand how to interact civily with others who contradict her view of herself.

Wow, you go away for a few days…
I’m happy that there has been some backlash to **Tuba’s** “what’s a girl to do?” comment when she banned **drmark2000**.
Yes, what could you possibly have done? _Not_ exercised power you possess? Of course not! You have to wield your little power, because otherwise people might not take you seriously!
