He wasn't MS, was he?

EDIT: Reading through the thread again, I'm sure that he isn't.

Ridg3 03-20-2011 03:15 AM

I'm thinking he was GABBITS OWN.

Phylum 03-20-2011 03:22 AM

I doubt that for some reason.

I also doubt that Nate will tell us who it is.

EDIT: Scratch that. Rereads are giving me different signs each time and I'm now thinking it IS GO.

MeechMunchie 03-20-2011 04:19 AM

I don't even care. Whoever he was, he was an idiot.

moxco 03-20-2011 04:26 AM

How come this guy can make a multi and get 14 posts and any multis I have made get stopepd at the gate? Do you guys just do IP checks at random?

I do IP checks at every registration (which is how you got caught). And if someone seems suspicious, I'll re-check them at a later date. Some members have been re-checked many, many times.

is the IP check before you validate the account or something? because i remember managing to pretend to be MS at one stage. i stuck to the welcome thread but it was a while before i was banned, and i think that was because someone did think i was MS.

Uhhh... what part of my last post wasn't clear?


This thread makes me realise that we have been really quite slack about infracting people for multi accounts.

MarsMudoken 03-20-2011 04:27 PM

Wait, he was a multi-user? A fraud? He was Gabbit's Own, wasn't he?

Great. Just great.

Nate 03-20-2011 04:32 PM

He wasn't necessarily Gabbit's Own. I'm not entirely sure who he was, but he was one of three possible entities.

Kinto 03-20-2011 04:43 PM

I'm also new to the forums.

Wings of Fire 03-20-2011 04:51 PM

Well done.

uhhh... the part were you said that you IP check every registration. if that's so, how come my account wasn't caught at the time?

i'm not particularly bothered, i was just wondering how it works. Jesus Christ.

i made it very clear that i had made a multi after it was banned, and i even told you in a PM when you infracted me for something else. i clearly remember that. i didn't hide it.

FudTV, here.

Well... I don't want to go in to too much detail on how I detect multis, but suffice to say that sometimes the information given to me at registration does not indicate a multi but more data will come to light at a later date.

I never said you didn't. I was just making the point that we've been far too merciful when it comes to infractions.

moxco 03-20-2011 11:15 PM

Oh well I shall be getting a new ISP soon. Muahaha.
Not that I'd make a multi.

The problem with multis is it's not easy to troll without it being obvious.

I don't remember that. What was all that stuff about Meech and Murray?

MA 03-22-2011 02:08 PM

it's too long ago to remember, to be honest. all i know is i was mimicking an MS multi.

Nate 03-23-2011 05:07 PM

MarsMudoken negrepped me for banning Chlargia. Does anyone else think that sounds suspicious?

Wings of Fire 03-23-2011 05:09 PM

He negrepped me for no apparent reason, I think he was throwing a tanty.

metroixer 03-23-2011 05:10 PM

I don't know about suspicious but he sure is stupid as hell for doing it.

MA 03-23-2011 06:16 PM

Mars is MS.

LYNCH HIM

Phylum 03-23-2011 09:41 PM

Even if he isn't MS.

LYNCH HIM.

MeechMunchie 03-24-2011 12:49 AM

*Grabs pitchfork*

Nate 03-24-2011 02:32 AM

I hope everyone is prepared for the onslaught of negrep they're gonna receive once Mars reads this thread.

Phylum 03-24-2011 03:11 AM

We should all negrep him, because he obviously thinks rep matters.

MeechMunchie 03-24-2011 03:16 AM

And most of us can negrep ten times as powerfully as him.

Dynamithix 03-24-2011 03:57 AM

Why would you negrep him? Just ignore him.

MA 03-24-2011 09:55 AM

he started a -rep war with me not long after he joined.

it didn't last long.

Dynamithix 03-24-2011 10:13 AM

okay

MA 03-24-2011 10:17 AM

i wasn't actually saying that was a reason why we/i should -rep him, i just wanted to share my short and dull story.

i prefer trolling him.

Dynamithix 03-24-2011 10:19 AM

okay

MA 03-24-2011 10:22 AM

THANKS!

Dynamithix 03-24-2011 10:23 AM

u wlcome

STM 03-24-2011 10:56 AM

I started a rep war with T-Nex I think. I lost. I lost baaad.

'TIS IMPOSSIBLE FOR ME TO GET PAST 495 THOUGH! GRAWR.

T-nex 03-24-2011 12:12 PM

Its just stupid to start a rep war with someone who has way more rep power... Unless you're trying to make a point I suppose and the loss of rep doesn't matter.

MeechMunchie 03-24-2011 12:19 PM

I have the same rep power as you.

*Flexes fingers*

Make your move, stranger.

T-nex 03-24-2011 02:58 PM

Im not trying to make a point :D

Phylum 03-24-2011 09:30 PM

Isn't it more of a rep-duel?

Now, a rep-war where opposing forces, alliances and thousands of bannings would be great.

OANST 03-25-2011 09:42 AM

Would anyone like to duel with me?

MeechMunchie 03-25-2011 09:51 AM

I think that would be classed as suicide.

You thought this was going to be horrible, didn't you? I can think of many tasteless jokes given who I'm talking to, but I'm not going to do that.
