I think some people sock up and avoid the behavior that got them banned. If they can be good participants in the board, then I’m happy to have them. I suspect those people are in the minority of socks and most are trocks.
More details please (forum? thread?)
Continuing the hijack despite @Aspenglow’s request to drop it.
ETA: considering the recent posts, TPTB may just go straight to dropping the banhammer.
The ones that get noticed generally are. No one really pays attention to a new poster unless they act up in some way.
In theory someone could let something slip and be identified that way, but I can’t think of an example where that happened. I don’t remember there ever being a poster who was perfectly well behaved, but accidentally let something slip so that we realized they’d been banned before.
A bit before your time:
I was kinda feeling sorry for the OP until they decided to call a couple mods “cruel.” That seems a rather dumb thing to do when requesting leniency.
At least we can say “good riddance” to KennyT, and kudos to the mods for a good job. What an insufferable asshole!
Amen to that!
Dolf just got a warning and a threadban, at the least.
Warning for dolfinwriter and probably suspension coming up for ignoring mod instructions to end the hijack and a completely belligerent tone in P&E that is only reasonable for The Pit. At very least you are officially banned from this thread. Prior Modnote: To EVERYONE, please do not reply any further to dolphinwriter.
“All will be revealed.”
Twoofers have been saying that for 20 years!
What, you want it to bullshit here instead?
I’m sorry?
You linked that thread from here. That’s practically an invitation for dolf to start in here instead.
Yes, that is why I posted the forum and thread title in plain text and didn’t include a link to either the thread or the user profile.
ETA: They are suspended for the next 30 minutes according to their profile so we at least won’t see anything until then at the earliest.

Ah. Well, I’m not a big fan of talking about people behind their backs. Anyway, he’s likely not long for the board, so try not to get too attached.
He sounds like the bastard child of Octo and Asahi, spouting rigid politics + hysterical rantings.

Do that enough and this will become another argument clinic.
Hide and watch, fuckers.
Dammit! I wanted to say that.
