I just got a du mail and I think the person was accusing me of sharing an account

with someone else here on DU. And that it is a TOS violation.

WTF. Just so everyone knows, I'm me and only me, no one else is me and I share no account with anyone.

As there is obviously some rumor flying around that I am sharing an account with someone, which I am not.

They talk like I know who it is I'm sharing an account with, but won't name the other person who deserves a TOS too.

However, I am not sharing my account with anyone. My account is my own and mine only.

i think they might be accusing you of sharing an account with baines .

it doesn't make any sense but there are a lot of conspiracy types around and they make things very personal.

The thought of bains crossed my mind as well. We both have the initial of BB....

Maybe this is the source of their concern.... who knows. Weird is what it is.

I just don't want to get a hidden. They get mighty crafty with the alert messages you know and a ham sandwich could be indicted you know.

I kinda want to see if i can determine who it is without the name. If you post it, i'll play the guessing game. It could be fun.
Do you know who they think you are?

Them to me from out of the blue:

I'm not positive, but I think sharing accounts might be a TOS violation.

What do you think?


Me:

I'm thinking I don't know what the hell you're talking about. Want to enlighten me?


Them:

LOL.


Me:

Well you could at least tell me who you think is sharing an account? You wrote to me, no?

Are you thinking I share an account with someone?


I have not received a response to my last inquiry. I think the LOL seals the deal they think I share an account with someone.

"I might be one of your HOF friends" in some thread. Sounds like the same kind of MO.

It's stupid and obsessive and perverse
