How many temporary bans...

[GIMH]

rumour has it that geg has one

 

[susudear]

any body who gets it from now on should do so

Why don't you take the initiative?

 

[Prince EWS]

Why don't you take the initiative?

Why don't you just log into Precambrian for a second and take one?

 

[susudear]

No idea

Why don't you just log into Precambrian for a second and take one?

Post reported.

Oh, wait....

 

[Prince EWS]

Post reported.

Oh, wait....

Precambrian used to report a whole heap of posts every day too. But I'm sure you know that.

Oh, wait....

Where in the US are you supposed to be?

why isn't he banned if he's a dupe?

 

[_Ed_]

Otago, New Zealand was the initial claim.

Can't prove it. It's definitely him though. Part of me hopes we never prove it as I like Precambrian and don't want him to have his ban extended again, but the other part of me hates the fact that he's parading his dire multi around and wants to nab him for it.

 

[GIMH]

IMO an EWS suspicion is better than any fact, so let's give you the ban button, give susdear life etc

 

[G.I.Joe]

Otago, New Zealand was the initial claim.

Yeah, when caught out on that, he claimed he was now in the US.

And I have it on good authority that the IP traces to Zambia. We found that out when I first imagined the account was a mult33 of grapedo. He's had a good few others, so the presumption was natural.

 

[Rant0r]

tracing the ip won't help if he's using a proxy

Just curious, What makes you think that it's precambrian ? Also how long the guy has been banned for ?

yeah i didn't get that impression as well...

 

[Richard]

Nor did I initially but having been given some background info by a relevant party or two I can now see precisely why the very, very strong suspicion is there. Will leave it to such parties to pubish said info in the public domain should they wish.

I'd like to add that if true - and I think the possibility is strong indeed - I'm incredibly annoyed as Precambrian's a poster I got (eventually) to have a huge amount of time for and thought he was great for the forum. Really annoying that he got banned for a such a silly, unneccessary incident; more annoying still that he couldn't wait a week without duplicate-accounting so thus got 7 days extended to 28; and yet more annoying still that he's apparently created another duplicate, ensured no certain (IP) detection is possible and posted in an unutterably woeful manner (this susudear's early posts were diabolical TSTL) presumably just to reduce further the possibility of detection.

Initially I'd never remotely suspected susudear of being Precamb (though I was fairly sure it was some form of mult33, and of course as I say first presumed grapedo) but having studied the matter further and had a few other things pointed-out to me, I do think it's quite likely.

Let's just hope Precambrian returns eventually and returns with his normal account, and as himself.

 

[NZTailender]

For those that are interested.

 

[Richard]

O0o0o0o0o0o0o0o, you got a ban on-the-hour, tres impressive.

 

[GIMH]

Okay, here you go people
