Here's a dumb question...

If you're banned from this website, can you still come here and read posts?

I'm pretty sure that would be the case Joe, just as it would be for anyone else who isn't registered...

I don't see how you could block the URL from any computer or other online device a person might use....

I believe a banned person would have whatever permissions any non registrant would have, and obviously we don't want to block everyone not registered from reading the posts, because we want to encourage new people to sign up....

What Jim said.

We will be motoring new registrants for suspicious IPs or posting times and styles.

If LoCa tried to start posting under a new identity, it would take about one post for 90% of the people here to recognize her...

She really wouldn't be all that tough to spot....

Just look for the brand new poster who's trolling Strop and Hen.... :D

To what location will you be driving those new registrants?

Oh piss! "Monitoring", of course, was intended.

The Hatch getting her license has been weighing heavily on his mind.

I can understand how the current situation at home has shifted Gob's thinking and might be driving his thought process and cause him to be a bit throttled.

He's shitting himself*.

Well that's nice for loca - she's off the board, gets a new beau, a picnic, a whole new life. Does this work for everyone who is banned? Not so sure about the new beau's incontinence problem though. Maybe she could print out a thread and take the paper with.

:shrug

And so was launched yet another outpouring of sympathy for poor "deluded" loCA.
Sorry, Scooter, please don't misinterpret what I said, or put words in my mouth. I don't doubt that loCAtek thought I might be susceptible to manipulation, but when I received that PM I did not believe her for a minute. I realized that that she must have made up that whole "Mental Health worker/Client relationship" thing quite recently as a justification for the "complaint", I asked publicly (while disclosing as little as possible of the content) whether anyone else had received the same PM, and I PM'd the whole message to Gob and Hen to let them know what she'd said to me (and possibly others? I'm still not sure). And I had, if anything, LESS sympathy for her after receiving that attempt to manipulate me.
People who are wrong are just as sure they're right as people who are right. The only difference is, they're wrong.

Seeing as you've been brave enough to admit that, I think it calls for mine and Hen's public thanks. Cheers mate, if ever there was any doubt in anyone's mind how toxic Lo's hatred for us was/is, that should remove it.

It goes without saying also, that EVERYONE who has offered us support and advice, legal and otherwise, has our deepest thanks.
