OLRansom gone at FE...

  • It is of little consequence to be sure, but OLRansom has been deleted over at FE.  Some had wondered, and one asked point blank, whether or not I was OLRansom.

    I was away from the net for a couple of days, planning to answer when I got back on-line.  Well, I went to login and the account had already been deleted - no PMs, no emails, no discussion (no broken rules, either).

    Anyway, for what it is or is not worth, I - Eamon Shea/gladius_veritatis - was posting under the username OLRansom.

    Part of the reason I posted this here is because I can no longer do so at FE.  God speed to all - we will need it more than ever in the days to come.

    Ah, but it is not fake.  October 6th, rendered 06.10 when using the European manner, is my supernatural birthday.  I was baptized October 6, 1973.

    One moderator at FE guessed a while back.  However, s/he was discreet enough to ask me in a PM, and in such a way that it left me free to leave the question alone for the moment.  

    Thank you, moderator of FE.

  • If he WAS going to return, shouldn't he keep his next handle secret?

    After all, FE members seem to come here quite often, second only to FE itself  :wink:

  • maybe the mods, or at least Vox were able to view IP addresses, and that's how they figured it was you?

    Don't encourage his misbehavior. :fryingpan:
    Once you've been banned, take it like an adult and stay away.

  • This is presuming there was actual misbehavior, and that my behavior was somehow childish (neither of which is beyond the realm of possibility, mind you).  My original "deletion", as g_v, had nothing to do with violation of the rules - nor was that an issue this time around.  Vox simply wants to have a site that runs along certain lines, and I - well-behaved or no - do not fit into that picture.

    No, because I am using a computer (thanks to Trinity) that I did not own before.

  • I think my wife was referring to the phenomenon of "sneaking back into a forum" when she mentioned 'misbehavior'

    Of course Gladius didn't do anything wrong to get himself banned -- other than "being Gladius".

  • I didn't think Veritatis would give the real fictitious name he would use, but we could have some fun with it.  I can see why he goes there---to shed some light on dark subjects, the aim of every true Catholic.  

    Hey, Chant, are you ever going to let me in on the "secret of the quotes"?

    I hear you, and I agree.  I should have said that the words lend themselves to such an interpretation, rather than that they indicate the presumption of actual misbehavior.

    Either way, a few solid whacks on the head with a cast-iron pan would likely do me a lot of good.
