Just was wondering after SouthWB posted here saying his account had been hijacked if the problem was resolved. I see that all of his posts are now gone from City Data. hmm...

Bummer if true Coartist. I can't believe he would have written any of those kooky things.

Well he or she started up again last night attacking one of the posters with a profanity laced pm among other crazy, crazy posts on the PA board. Happened after 12 AM IRC and was cleaned up by the time I checked this morning. I suspect the account wasn't hijacked but was the same person.

I don't believe that for a second.

why would he do that? why not just create a separate account if he wanted to troll? that's what I would do, anyway.

Not that I've done ANYTHING like that in the past on other message boards....

I don't think that you are allowed .... by that I mean that the system will not allow you more than one account per household ... I know that my guy tried to get a memebership ... but it would not allow him to have his own so ... he does not post.

I see that Soutwb has the status of "Not a Member" under his name. Those postings were truly bizzare and highly offensive ... I read them after his post asking for help. If I were her/him ... and this were happening to me ... I would have asked to have my account deleted so that this person ... if they were truly using my account ... could not post under my name.

Now if you read the posts you would see that one minute ... the posts were off the wall crazy radical religious group ... and then a minute later he/she would post in a normal fashion ... so ... this would lead me to believe that it was the same person posting both ... but that is only my opinion.

I banned him myself for random trolling and insults, all over the forum. He claimed his account has been hijacked by some weird religious sect, yet posted normal posts at the same time these "weird" posts appeared...
Whatever his reason was to do what he did, we cannot tolerate this type of behavior. After several warnings and infractions from several mods things only got worse.
Yac.

Say it is not so!!! I love everyone on here but SW was the one reason I joined and stayed here. Yes, he degraded "uneducated" people which I have also had it out with him a few times but he helped many who were moving to the area. We all have different opinions about issues but that is what makes it interesting. For me, this is a sad, sad day. Will he ever be let back on?
