Finding fellow apolytoners on other forums while browsing the internet.
You click on a link, you go to a site, you click on a link, you go to a site, etc., etc. Sometimes, you click on a link, and arrive at a forum. Sometimes, you'll see a forumer with a name you recognize. a nickname of an apolytoner. Hmmm, so this ain't just another forum full of nazis, furries, anarchists, BDSM, etc. This is too close for comfort. This is VERY INTERSTING  . Usually, this means that the person is using the same nickname all over the net, and a rather special, non-generic nickname at that.
Is it ok to use this in arguments against him? Is it a legitimate tactic to use his quotes from some other site? Is it playing dirty?
Discuss.
(Oh yes, and this is based on a real experience. I think I saw some of you people around.  )

You learn lots of stuff from these things.
For example, I never knew panag's real name.

Hmm...not sure if I've seen 'polys elsewhere. Think I saw Stefu somewhere recently. However, if any of you see the username "DRoseDARs" it damn well BETTER be me since that was a uniquely-created name...

IIRC the only forum (in addition to this) I post to under the name of 'Stefu' is Portal of Evil forum, and I started posting there only pretty recently.

I was looking for modded units for Civ3 a few days ago and I happened across a site that one of the contributors had a familiar name...I'll see if I can find it again and settle this question...

The question was adressed to Stefu. 
I've also been getting lots of people like 'mindseye', but that's a common nick.

Unfortunately it's a branching forum, but at least furries are mocked extensively in there.

Stefu provided a link to it, but I'd still like an explaination if you don't mind.

Still in denial, are we? Well, manytimes we mock that which we secretly admire.

Yes, it's time to admit my deep source of secret shame - I no longer believe that branching forums are as evil as I used to believe.

No one wants to 'xplain 'branching forums' to me? I feel ignored...

Branching forums/threads:
an annoying system of forum architecture, where you don't have a linear development of threads, but instead, the messages are placed according to which message you reply to.
