I still don't understand why Carne had the mutiple accounts (perhaps to amuse himself?) but I've looked back at his posts and they appear pretty harmless really. He's just agreeing with himself most of the time, not really worthy of a ban (unlike 4Buck recently).
Why did 4Buck get banned???
I do think the multiple accounts reek of manipulation (sorry, Carne). I mean, why else have them?

If I understood him correctly, those accounts were originally accounts of relatives and/or friends.

Unfortunately, people on this FABULOUS penguin-site and great board, disagree with me.
That still doesn't answer the question posed to you. Of course he didn't agree with his "punishment" I mean let's face it, 95% of prisoners say they're innocent right?

Staying "on the edge" is not what he was banned for and you know it. And "lively" does not even begin to describe his insulting attitude and you know that too.

Somehow I HIGHLY doubt this is true.

That's what he said to me. Think of it what you want. But I believe what he mails me privately.

Hey, watch out. Did you have his permission to post what he said privately? I think another strike is coming your way, pal.

I'm just suprised you believe everything...I mean, the guy already has two aliases, which HE used, regardless of whether they were set up for relatives, or not. I would just take most things he said with a grain of salt, maybe some camphor, perhaps a little worchestershire sauce, maybe grill it up with some onions, then....oh, uh, sorry, i'm really hungry....

about people who use to names to agree with themselves...can't they all just wish they had an identical twin, like I do, and leave it at that?

I thought it was because of her woman-hating comments...which I found funny because she was a woman.

I'm sorry but I did not consider his posts insulting. We disagree on that. So stating that I know that too is incorrect. I know that not.

Well, I have NEVER believed everything he posted over here. He was obviously playing debate-games here, like a few others do too. But I have a very good friendship with him over email and PM. So don't think I acted here as a naieve boardmember ( what I AM actually), and the fact about those alliasses was just an answer to a question. I don't want to defend that at all. And I agree that he used them to play with, regardless of their origin. But you don't have insight in my personal correspondence with him.

Have a good meal. Carne used to have great lunchsuggestions over here. Ask Strand.

oh, of course i don't. And it was just a random comment...I didn't know hardly anything about him, except when he pm'd me to try to get me to vote for something...he was pretty polite, and tried to make a deal, but i told him I didn't trust him to uphold his deal...wait, i guess i did know a little that he may have not been completely up front...hmmm. Anyway, I had a hard boiled egg for lunch, cause i'm broke this week but thank you!!!

I tried not to be offensive in this thread, I bit my tongue, I did not set out to be rude, but that comment I quoted above was simply classless.

Dis , i find it funny that you look at what johhny said and can call it rude , or tell him that you cant use , "thats not what i meant" and then state thats exactly what he meant. ,but then with a post from CV, everyone can say it wasnt rude or he didnt break the rules . or thats NOT what CV meant, etc... Its not your board, its not your rules, and if you did respect the MODS decision, you wouldnt have to continually disect THIER decision. yes you can post your feelings about it here as they stated, but to keep asking MODS why why why, when they have clearly told you why, is just prolonging what has already been said and done, I think the MODS get it that you dont like thier decision, but they stand by what they did and gave reason for why and what they did. they did take things into perspective as another poster suggested, it just so happens that thier overall perspective doesnt agree with the likes of that poster. But to allow him to post a Good bye, and have the last word as someone suggested as being a classy move b y the mods, why should the mods allow that. when you are being warned with strikes for your behavior and dont show any sign of taking those warnings into consideration in your future posts, why would a goodbye post be allowed, we all know his nature of posts and it wouldnt have been a simple goodbye post, we all got a taste of what it was when someone posted it in this thread, without permission. IT would just keep the posts of how you all disagree with the mods decision going on and on with out taking into consideration why the mods banned him in the first place. so the mods took a way a friend of yours from your FM board, thats all that really happened in the end. if he really was that good of a friend of yours, well im sure you exchanged emails in the lifetime that he was on this board and you can surely stay in touch. its not the end of the world. if you truly dislike the rules and their decision, everyone is free to leave or stay, but to keep asking why why why when you clearly got your answers is a waste of time. For some of you who say it isnt clear, its simply that you cant accept someone making a decision that you disagree with. we all dont have to agree and the mods know that, but you should accept what they have decided as being whats best for the boards future or you can leave if it really bothers you that much. its their decision and i have to respect that.
