1. I thought Skinner would have more posts that California Peggy.....

Go figure...

[CaliforniaPeggy]

2. I thought that too...

But he's too busy running the site to post.

4. So what's up with the pinned thread? I missed something.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

5. It's pinned to make sure everyone reads it. That's all.

[talkingmime]

6. Well, yeah, but why is it an issue?

[CaliforniaPeggy]

8. It's an issue because often the rules are broken.

Or people are unaware of them.

Pinning the topic makes sure people see it and then they will know what's allowed and what isn't.

That's why!

3. My theory is that he posts as the many, many sockpuppet trolls around here.

That could be easily wiped out with a little coding to identify duplicate IP addresses.







Kidding.

Well, not about the many, many sockpuppet trolls or the coding. They live and it's possible.

7. Believe me, both he and MIRT* are well aware of how to identify duplicate IP addresses.

It isn't always that simple.

One of our better known trolls moves around from coffee shop to coffee shop. Always has a different IP address.

And so on.
