Watching For Perry, Pulling For Palin

If they know when someone’s a ‘retread’ then why don’t they know when people have multiple accounts?

[Lazlo in PA]

Geez. The ZOT buttons is getting a workout lately. I hope it doesn't overload. LOL.

[Grizzled Bear]

I get the feeling he has other handles and we’ll be hearing from himagain. Much like the infamous DannyH.

Do you mean he'll be back in the morning expecting us to show him the respect he deserves?

[Grizzled Bear]

I’ve had someone tell me that by FReepMail. Also mentioned two others we’d be familiar with. I wouldn’t be surprised. We need to watch those IP addresses...

It's hard to change writing styles. Retreads and sock puppets are usually pretty easy to spot, especially when the zotted one bought the farm in a spectacular way!

[DJ MacWoW]

They have the IP’s of banned accounts. It’s easy to check a new sign up that has caused suspicion. However, there are 300,000 registered posters. I assume the IP’s of everyone would have to be cross-referenced manually. I wouldn’t want the job.

I am reminded of 99-2000 when all the Pat B supporters were purged...

They were being obnoxious. It took '04 cycle for A+Bert to ride the lightning, though. Ahhh...good times!

Side note: In 2000 I met Pat Buchanan, and told him I had voted for him in '96. He said he looked forward to my vote again and I told him, "No." His wife, BTW, is a wonderful, wonderful lady.

Good job flushing him out guys! I had a bipolar roomie long ago who made everyone’s life miserable; glad to get rid of him...

Plus, IP addies are rotated periodically by the ISPs to prevent hacking and spoofing.

[Grizzled Bear]

I’ve had a few interactions with him and he was often testy to the point of being quite harsh. I wondered if he was drinking, or just very bitter and angry. Either way, it’s not good for the health, either mental or physical (what to speak of spiritual).

There are times I like to tweak someone's nose if they act rude or foolish. Most of the time, at the end of the exchange, we end on civil (if not friendly) terms.

I never had a friendly conclusion with Larsen.

[DJ MacWoW]

They are? Mine comes up the same when checked. Maybe my internet company is “lame”. LOL

[Cyber Liberty]

That reminds me: Can one of you guys ping Darkie when you see the first ZOT after midnight PST? You guys are the gold standard. Thanks from the folks at the Undead Thread!

[Cyber Liberty]

Do you use a router in your home?

[potlatch]

[I assume the IP’s of everyone would have to be cross-referenced manually.]

I would think that could be built into the html program. On the other hand there are families with multiple accounts and that would eliminate just using the IP.....

Oh well........lol
Happy New Year DJ

[DJ MacWoW]

Danged if I know. Hubby takes care of all of that.

[Grizzled Bear]

I hate announcing a ZOT for a long-timer, especially a Canteener.

Most of the Paleos are pretty cool.

Unfortuantely, there have been a few such as B-CHAN, Dane and Willie Greene for example who seemed to believe they were to be treated with total respect and deference while acting rude and abusive to anyone who disagreed with them.

[jpsb]

Lol, I remember A+Bert getting zotted all the time but always managed to talk his way back on. Too many scotches in the PM was his problem I think. Speaking of Scotches I need to run. :) Happy New Year!

[DJ MacWoW]

New Year Blessings to you and yours!! :-)

[Allegra]

I know that's what has gotten others zotted in the past....referring to Palin as ummmm, working in the world's oldest profession....to put it delicately.

Yes, that would definitely be taking it too far.

I never had a problem with Randy, (but I never interacted with him much) but he may have pulled something similar to what got pissant (deservedly) zotted.

I hate to see the oldtimers go like that.

Happy New Year!

[potlatch]

Thank you sweetie!

I don't miss any of those three.
