PlotArmour/Ace new alt banned

Postby balder » Sat May 07, 2011 8:30 am

OhNoes was banned and his posts removed. It was a new alt of the only person ever banned from these forums, traced to the same ISP in Canberra, Australia.

PlotArmour/Ace/OhNoes' posts are actually easy to spot, but I am not going to give away the trick lest he change it in future posts.

Anyway, if:

1. You are a new/recent user, and
2. I so much as have reason to question whether or not you might be that guy, and
3. I can definitely connect you in any way to Canberra, Southeastern Australia, or that particular ISP,

Then I will delete your account and posts.

I'm estimating the chance that this will unfairly ban someone at no better than 1 in 100,000, based on the fact that only 1 in 200 or 300 posters ever says something so jerkassed that I want to look into their account status, and that Canberra accounts for 0.135% of Erfworld's total traffic.

Gosh. Canberra? What could have you possibly done to get on someone's bad side from half a globe away?

Everyone needs a hobby I guess.
The whole point of this is lost if you keep it a secret.

Wow, this dude, or chick, must really be a screw up.
I would be a procrastinator, but I keep putting it off.

I remember seeing the original comments by the original user, long time ago.

Its just basic trolling. Make a comment about this or that and call all those who disagree with you silly or ignorant or some other seemingly innocent but insulting term and the people get up in arms, hopping mad and make huge posts flaming the troll who's sitting back with a big grin on it's face asking

That, and he purposely broke the one cardinal rule of these forums multiple times..
Come on, say it with me now....
Don't be a dick!

Wheaton's Law is easy to follow, and yet so many have difficulty doing so. Perhaps they have too much time on their hands? I take some ..comfort?... in the fact that I spotted him right away, and even composed a post calling him out for who he was, but Rob was so quick on the uptake my post didn't even hit the thread before he was all deleted...I blame my darn gaming addiction for distracting me :D
