I banned WWSC for holding multiple accounts on CathInfo.
It's one of those things I have ZERO TOLERANCE for.
Those are the kind of "games" that ruin a forum. It basically turns the entire forum into the "Anonymous forum" -- where you can argue with yourself, make it look like your opinion is more popular, allow you to misbehave without "tarnishing" your main account, etc.

I won't allow any of those things on CathInfo.

Just think of all the things that might have annoyed you about WWSC, and all the things I let him get away with -- then consider that holding multiple accounts is why I banned him.

I can see everyone's IP address.
But more importantly, the software makes it stupidly easy for me to check for sock puppet accounts.
I simply click on your IP address and it will show me all member(s) who have used that IP address.
It's quite easy to use. Whenever I'm curious I can do this.

Breathe the free air!!!

Thank goodness. No more “sugar is good” crap.

All that sugar sweetened not his fetid personality. 

Dietary fat might have made him more gentle. I prescribe lardo, for immediate symptom relief!

I hate to be a Debbie Downer, but….Croix is as predictable as the sunrise. He’ll be back, like he always is, probably sooner than later.  ::)

I need to make a clarification --

When I was talking about my zero tolerance for sock-puppet or 2nd accounts, I wasn't including "accidental" or "innocent" 2nd accounts. For example, if you had some issue when you first signed up, etc.

Fortunately, I don't operate on auto-pilot here. When a second account comes up, I (a human being) look at it and apply my faculty of reason (which no computer has). The second account has no posts? Hasn't been used for years? No problem.

You'll note that neither of those things was true about WWSC and his other account.


In short, you only have to worry about ACTIVE accounts to run afoul of the rules.


I really am fair. If you aren't being a scoundrel, you have absolutely nothing to worry about.

Hopefully not, but let's see!
