Then how come Kommentariat - aka Beachbunny, homintern, lurker, Brisbaneguy, sooty, frequent, (ricondog?) etc, etc- wasn't banned? For a long while he was posting as Kommie, Brisbaneguy and sooty simultaneously.Having two user names though is enough to be banned.
Often, he was talking to himself. In one thread i remember he came on as "lurker" and called Kommie a "comic genius". (Lol) The same 'lurker" in the same thread posted that "Kommie has spoken", referring us to a thread where Kommie had expressed his definitive opinion for all us mortals to read.
Such behaviour makes a mockery of the board and probably discourages others from posting.
Your access to ISPs and that map showing where members are posting from would tell you. So what other handles has he used?
And does said technology not allow you to see what posters at the moment are using multiple handles?
Perhaps now is the time to have a general clean-up. It would be interesting to see how many of us would be left.
