It seems the mod thought I was a sock of Hesenberg.  I'm not sure how socks are expected to act, but I opposed nearly everything Hesenberg said on the Straight Dope Forum.

Unfortunately I burned that bridge as the next day I registered with a new e-mail/name, posted a few times then asked a mod about the deleted thread.  This resulted in another ban for being a sock of a banned member.  I suppose they checked the IP address.

You expect me to believe that two people brought their argument to a new forum and were mistaken for sock puppets even though they were on opposing sides? That can't possibly happen. Obviously the only explanation is that you really are Tim Finch, right Abaddon?

I'm kidding, of course. I just wanted to point out that this is exactly what Abaddon would have had me do to Ben Parry. It's why we should not make any assumptions about the motives of people who are new to the forum.

LO, do you have a Db of IP addresses?  Or just do an eyeball of them?

all water under the bridge. Abaddon very kindly posted a video of lunar legacy which i'm going to watch in full this weekend. I've blocked Tim on messenger so i havent heard from him since.

Once banned, is there any sort of appeal with forums? LO, if a member is banned, can they contact you to appeal and overturn the ban if there is a genuine mistake? Please answer that question or I will ask the moderator to step in.

I wasn't sure if you had seen parts 4 and 5. The whole thing was split into chunks originally because of youtube size rules at the time. I have no clue if there was something which provoked svector to reassemble it and publish it again.

I was reading the thread RanB posted on as a guest and then all of a sudden I couldn't access the thread at all. Found that a bit weird

Did you notice any black helicopters while this was happening?
