I'm sorry, but I just don't get what all the screen name fuss is all about. I see it as a non-issue but apparently other people think it's a serious matter. I never have been the type who gets my life wrapped up in these message boards. Life is too short and stressful enough to be concerning myself over a total stranger's screen name on a message board that I use for fun, entertainment, and information and interesting conversation.

That's one thing I remember about living in Indiana was there was just so many "busy-body's" conerning their selves with other people who were doing things they didn't think they should be doing.

The "fuss" with this particular member is that he was previously banned from this site for a number of reasons that violate the policies of the site.

Okay so one screen name was banned and now this person is supposedly posting under another screen name. My goodness, in the big scope of things, is that really a problem? It appears alot of people on this Forum don't agree with his opinion because if they did, people wouldn't be trying to ban him from this forum for using another screen name. I bet there's at least a thousand people thru out the C-D Forum who post under more than one screen name.

I don't know so maybe it's just me, but I believe I would choose other battles to fight than a total strangers screen name in an anonymous Internet forum. But to each his or her own, I suppose.

Well, maybe nobody, but post # 25 added to the othet negative comments concerning that poster seemed like that's the direction its heading.

I don't think anyone in this conversation is in the position to ban, or worry about banning, anyone.

The problem is that this kid has concocted an entire fake backstory to account for this new screen name. Not only that, but he has given advice on this forum based on this faked backstory.

I mean, if you are going to create this screen name and fake backstory, at least do us the service of not being so obvious about being the same person.

Yeah, well maybe he'll learn from his mistakes and get really good at his craft. Practice makes perfect, particularly to those who are passionate and determined.
